Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Decreased Minute Ventilation (MV)15---30 minutes after Post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) arrival

The number of subjects who have a MV as defined as \[MV \<80% MV predicted (MVPRED) based on Body Surface Area\]. MV (or respiratory minute volume or minute volume) is the volume of gas inhaled (inhaled minute volume) or exhaled (exhaled minute volume) from a person's lungs per minute.

Decreased Average Minute Ventilation (MV)15---30 minutes after Post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) arrival

The number of subjects who have an average MV \<80% MV predicted (MVPRED) based on Body Surface Area. MV (or respiratory minute volume or minute volume) is the volume of gas inhaled (inhaled minute volume) or exhaled (exhaled minute volume) from a person's lungs per minute.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Train of Four (TOF) Ratioupon PACU discharge, approximately 8 hours

The number of subjects to have a normal TOF ratio (\>0.90) indicative of full neuromuscular recovery in the Post-anesthesia care unit (PACU)
