New monitor helps anesthesiologists give just the right muscle relaxant dose to kids
NCT ID NCT06472284
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a device called TetraGraph can help doctors measure muscle relaxation in children during surgery. The goal was to find the right amount of a muscle relaxant drug (rocuronium) needed to keep the patient still but safe. Fifty children under 18 took part, and the researchers recorded the doses and timing of the drug. The study did not test a new treatment, but rather gathered information to improve how anesthesia is given.
