The Association Between Residual Neuromuscular Block Risk Prediction Score and the Train-of-Four Ratio

March 26, 2025 updated by: Mahmoud Faisal, Assiut University

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

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.
