The Impact of Post-tetanic Count on Subsequent Train-of-four During Recovery From Rocuronium
Completed
- Conditions
- Post-tetanic Count on One Arm, the Other Arm is the Control
- Interventions
- Device: NMT (a device that can do neurostimulation and can record the response on the stimulation by Datex)
- Registration Number
- NCT01086176
- Lead Sponsor
- Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to see how long does the effect of a post-tetanic facilitation last on subsequent train-of-four. The investigators hypothesis is that the effect last at least 30 minutes.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The difference at 30 minutes after the post-tetanic count between the TOF% in both arms, we expect a difference of more than 10%
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The difference at 30 minutes after the post-tetanic count on the T1% (of the calibrated T1) in both arms, we expect a difference of more than 10% The difference of the slope of recuperation on TOF and T1% after a post-tetanic count vs the control arm that had no tetanic stimulation
