Appearance of an EMG response at threshold stimulation levels, just sufficient to elicit a palpable twitch response;\n4.

Consistency of EMG response characteristics independent of patient age, gender, or weight;\n6. Consistency of EMG response characteristics independent whether the right or left arm is stimulated;\n7.

The primary aim of this clinical investigation is to examine the applicability (ease of use, equipment need, etc.), repeatability (precision or internal consistency) and performance (signal quality, accuracy of outcome, voltage of stimulation output before and during a stimulus) of the Tetragraph device in patients undergoing elective surgeries requiring neuromuscular blockade.', 'detailedDescription': 'The TetraGraph will be tested in 50 consenting patients undergiong elective surgeries requiring neuromuscular blockade. The left of right hand of the patients will be randomly studied. After the induction of anesthesia but before the administration of muscle relaxant train-of-four (TOF) stimulation will be started with 30 mA current intensity, 0.2 msec pulse duration at 20 sec intervals. The stimulation will be left to run until extubation. The TetraGraph device will be set not to show measurement results on the screen but save them on the SD card for later analysis. This way TetraGraph will not influence clinical decisions and patient care. During the operations we will record the number of muscle twitches in return to stimulation, the time and dose of muscle relaxant and opioid administration, the time of use of electrocautery and the skin temperature.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'Patients undergoing elective surgeries requiring muscle relaxation', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
