Abstract:

Objective To observe the effects of calibration in patients in awakened or sedated status for single twitch stimulation (T1) and train-of-four (TOF) (T4/T1) on postoperative T1 and TOF value. Methods Forty patients at ASAⅠor Ⅲ level, were divided into two groups at random: The awakened group (group A) and the sedation group (group S). In the group A, calibrated T1 and TOF in the case of patients without given any sedative, and in the sedation group, calibrated when patients were given etomidate to make BIS in 40-60. Two groups of patients were not given muscle relaxants. The maximum values of T1 and TOF were observed while the BIS value of two groups of patients with postoperative awake returned to preoperative levels. Results The postoperative T1 maximum value of patients in the group S was obviously higher than it in the group A(P=0.005), there was no statistically significant difference between two groups of postoperative TOF in maximum value comparison(P=0.191).Conclusion In the observation of muscle relaxant monitoring, patients in awakened status underwent the T1 and TOF calibration, which caused a small effect on postoperative T1 value, has more clinical significance.

Key words: neuromuscular monitoring, close-loop muscle relaxant injection system, calibration, train-of-four (TOF)
