Study of muscle function monitor in newborns and teens
This trial tests a device called TetraGraph that measures how muscles respond during surgery. It looks at the connection between nerves and muscles in newborns and older patients to make anesthesia safer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 28 days and 3 months old, or at least 12 years old
- You are having surgery with gas anesthesia (not intravenous anesthesia)
- Your surgery does not need a muscle relaxant drug
- You do not have a history of nerve or muscle disease
- Your arm and hand can be used for the monitoring device

This trial uses a device called TetraGraph to measure how quickly a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works and wears off during surgery. It may help doctors better manage anesthesia for patients who need this medicine.
This study compares two different monitors that measure how deeply your muscles are relaxed during long surgeries (over 3 hours) like laparoscopic, robotic, or chest surgeries. The monitors help the anesthesia team keep you safe and comfortable.
This trial compares two devices that measure how well muscle relaxant medicine is working during planned surgery. It may help anesthesiologists choose monitoring that improves safety by confirming the muscles are relaxing as intended.
This study tests two devices that measure how well muscle relaxants work in young children during surgery. The goal is to see which device gives more accurate readings, helping doctors use the right dose of relaxant.
This study compares two different devices that monitor how well your muscles recover from the muscle relaxant used during surgery. The goal is to see if the newer, smaller device works just as well as the standard one, which could make monitoring easier and more comfortable for you.
This trial tests a new device that measures how well muscle relaxants work during surgery. It may help anesthesiologists give the right amount of medication.
