Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Onset Time of Muscle Relaxation for Flexor Hallucis Brevis (Great Toe) and Adductor Pollicis (Thumb) MusclesUp to 1 hour postoperatively

The amount of time before initial muscle relaxation is recorded via neurostimulation with the Tetragraph device. As measure in seconds.

Recover Time for Flexor Hallucis Brevis (Great Toe) and Adductor Pollicis (Thumb) MusclesUp to 1 hour postoperatively

The amount of time after muscle neurostimulation with the Tetragraph device completion to muscle full recovery. As measure in seconds.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Onset Time of Reversal Agent Administered for Flexor Hallucis Brevis (Great Toe) and Adductor Pollicis (Thumb) MusclesUp to 1 hour postoperatively

The amount of time from reversal agent administered to initial muscle relaxation increase recorded via neurostimulation with the Tetragraph device. As measure in seconds.

Recover Time of Reversal Agent Administered for Flexor Hallucis Brevis (Great Toe) and Adductor Pollicis (Thumb) MusclesUp to 1 hour postoperatively

The amount of time after reversal agent administered to muscle full recovery recorded via neurostimulation with the Tetragraph device. As measure in seconds.
