Objective monitoring may reduce residual paralysis; leaves open need for RCTs before standard-of-care adoption.
Does perioperative objective neuromuscular monitoring prevent postoperative residual paralysis in patients receiving neuromuscular blocking agents?
Perioperative objective neuromuscular monitoring should be a standard of care to ensure a train-of-four ratio of 0.90 or more and prevent clinically significant postoperative residual paralysis.
Viby‐Mogensen et al. (2010) studied this question.
