Summary

This trial will study how much rocuronium medication is needed during surgery in children under 18 years old using a device called TetraGraph Neuromuscular Transmission Monitor.

Who is the study for?
This clinical trial is for patients under 18 years old who are undergoing surgical procedures and will be monitored using the TetraGraph Neuromuscular Transmission Monitor. Specific inclusion and exclusion criteria details were not provided.
What is being tested?
The study is testing how the TetraGraph monitor affects the amount of rocuronium, a muscle relaxant, needed during surgery. It's a forward-looking study that observes participants over time without blinding.
