Testing a new nerve monitor sensor and cable
This study tests a new sensor and cable that monitors muscle response during procedures where you are given medication to temporarily relax your muscles (paralytic). It helps doctors make sure the medication is working properly and wears off safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are able to understand and sign a consent form.
- You are getting a medical procedure that uses medication to temporarily paralyze muscles.
- The nerve monitor will be placed on your hand or forearm (not on your foot or ankle).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have no skin issues (scar, tattoo, injury) at the sensor site that could affect the reading.

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.
This study tests a new way to check how well muscle relaxants are working in intensive care patients. It aims to make sure the monitoring is reliable, which could help doctors adjust treatment better for each patient.
This study compares two ways to monitor muscle relaxation during surgery. It looks at how well a nerve monitor on the arm works versus one on the wrist, to help doctors give the right amount of muscle relaxant medicine.
This trial tests a special nerve stimulation technique (100 Hz tetanic stimulation) to see if it can help monitor muscle function during anesthesia. It might help doctors make sure patients are properly relaxed during surgery.
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.
