Hand Dynamometer and Clinical Tests to Evaluate Neuromuscular Recovery in Atracurium vs Rocuronium

Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Neuromuscular Block Prolonged

• Registration Number: NCT05657756
• Lead Sponsor: Al Safwa University College

Brief Summary

One of the common serious complications in the postoperative phase is Residual the neuromuscular blockade that confused the anesthesia medical team also patients may become uncomfortable, un ability to clear secretion, un-explanation of decreasing SPO2, increase respiratory effort and lead to an increase in the risk of respiratory complication. Most clinicians used clinical assessment to evaluate neuromuscular recovery such as a head lift for 5 seconds, Sustain leg lift, Tongue protrusion, teeth clenching, swallowing, Tidal volume 5 mL/kg, Handgrips Sustained for 5 seconds, and other clinical assessments in patients undergoing general anesthesia. A few studies have been discussing the utilization of hand dynamometers in the assessment of post-residual neuromuscular block. Our aim is to examine the neuromuscular recovery using a hand dynamometer after receiving Atracurium versus Rocuronium.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
100 patients were enrolled in our study, they are receiving muscle relaxants either Atracurium or rocuronium, and we recorded the muscle strength of the forearm in a postoperative location using an electronic hand dynamometer with a kilogram scale.	up to 6 months	record the neuromuscular recovery using a hand dynamometer with a kilogram scale
