Monitoring muscle relaxants in the intensive care unit
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

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.
This trial tests if different levels of muscle relaxation during abdominal surgery affect lung function and breathing problems after surgery. It may help patients who are having open abdominal surgery under general anesthesia lasting over an hour.
This trial tests how long a muscle relaxant (rocuronium) works in infants aged 3-12 months having skull surgery for a condition called craniosynostosis. The results may help doctors give safer and more effective doses.
This study compares two methods of monitoring how well muscle relaxants are working during non-cardiac, non-chest surgery. It aims to find which method helps doctors manage these drugs better and improve recovery.
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.
