Comparing two muscle monitors during gallbladder surgery
This study compares two devices that measure how well your muscles recover from anesthesia during gallbladder surgery. It may help doctors choose the best way to ensure your muscles are working normally before you wake up.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You are scheduled for laparoscopic gallbladder removal under general anesthesia.
- You will receive a muscle relaxant during surgery.
- You do not have a muscle or nerve disease.
- You do not have any arm or hand problems that would prevent monitoring.

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 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 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 compares two medications (sugammadex and neostigmine) given after surgery to help you wake up from anesthesia faster and recover more smoothly. It may help you leave the recovery room sooner and feel better after your procedure.
This trial compares two places on the hand—the thumb base and the pinky base—to see which is better for monitoring muscle relaxation during surgery. Participants will have their muscle response measured with a gentle electrical test (electromyography) while receiving a standard muscle relaxant (rocuronium).
This study compares two devices that measure how well muscle relaxants work during surgery. It aims to see if a newer device is as good as the standard one, which may help doctors use the right amount of medication.
