Official title
Residual Paralysis in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit: The Association Between Residual Neuromuscular Block Risk Prediction Score and the Train-of-Four Ratio. A Prospective Single-Center Open-Label Cohort Study
Overview
evaluate the degree of association, and the predictive accuracy of the REPS (as a predictive tool) compared with the TOFr as a quantitative assessment tool for (rNMB) in surgical patients in the early postoperative phase. The TOFr will be measured at 0, 15, 30, 45, and 60 min after extubation.
Interventions
- Diagnostic test residual neuromuscular block risk prediction score
it is a clinical tool designed to estimate the likelihood of residual neuromuxcular blockade in postoperative patients
Primary outcome measures
- correlation between residual neuromuscular block risk prediction score and train of four [Time frame: 1 hour]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria
- Age group 18-65 years old
