Safe and Efficient Anesthesia:
The Role of Quantitative Neuromuscular Monitoring

For CE credits, if you are from the US and already watched the webinar live, please click here

Residual neuromuscular block poses an unnecessary threat to patients. The basic principle for preventing residual neuromuscular block is quantitative neuromuscular monitoring. Three methods of neuromuscular monitoring will be addressed in this webinar: AMG, KMG and EMG. However, our speakers believe a combination of both neuromuscular monitoring and reversal agents, in terms of an algorithm can reduce incidence and severity of this unwanted anesthetic complication. In this webinar, the speakers discuss an algorithm using quantitative neuromuscular monitoring to reliably detect and reverse a possible residual neuromuscular block in particular clinical solutions.
