Low-dose muscle relaxant for spine surgery monitoring
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether a low dose of a muscle relaxant called rocuronium is safe and effective during spine surgery when doctors are monitoring the nerves. This may help patients who need spine surgery with nerve monitoring.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years of age or older.
- You are scheduled for spine surgery under general anesthesia.
- Your surgery will use intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring, which checks nerve function during surgery.
- You must agree to participate and sign a consent form.
- You must not have certain neurological conditions, epilepsy, or be taking certain medications that could interfere with monitoring.
- You must not have heart, lung, or other conditions that would make the muscle relaxant unsafe.

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 compares two muscle relaxants, rocuronium and cisatracurium, to see which causes fewer complications in people with chronic kidney disease (not on dialysis) who need general anesthesia. If you have kidney disease and are having surgery that requires a breathing tube, this study may help determine the safer drug for you.
This study compares a new muscle relaxant medication with a standard one to see how well they work for placing a breathing tube and maintaining muscle relaxation during surgery. It aims to find a safer or more effective option for patients undergoing general anesthesia.
This trial tests whether a medication that relaxes muscles (called a neuromuscular blocker) improves breathing help during surgery when a type of airway tube is used. It aims to see if it helps patients breathe better while under anesthesia.
This study looks at whether giving a deep muscle relaxant during your child's belly-button surgery can reduce pain after the operation. It may help kids feel better and recover more comfortably.
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.
