A surgeon′s assessment of inadequate neuromuscular antagonism in a case of prolonged neuromuscular blockade

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology, 2013
Evaluation of the degree of neuromuscular blockade by the surgeon using clinical criteria alone is unreliable. We report a case of prolonged neuromuscular blockade lasting 5.5 h, where an additional intra-operative dose of neuromuscular relaxant was ...

The latest trend in neuromuscular monitoring: return of the electromyography [PDF]

open access: yesAnesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2021
To reduce the risk of residual neuromuscular blockade, neuromuscular monitoring must be performed. Acceleromyography (AMG)-based neuromuscular monitoring was regarded as “clinical gold standard” and widely applied.
