Skeletal Muscle Index and a Neuromuscular Blocking Agent

Sponsor: Seoul National University Bundang Hospital

Summary

With the recent development of image analysis, it has become possible to measure the skeletal muscle index representing the subject's muscle mass from preoperative computed tomography (CT) images. Therefore, in this study, the investigators quantify the skeletal muscle index from preoperative CT images and analyze the correlation with the dose of neuromuscular blocking agent, rocuronium, required for maintaining deep neuromuscular blockade.

Official title: Relationship Between Skeletal Muscle Index in Preoperative Computed Tomography and a Neuromuscular Blocking Agent Dose Required for Maintaining Deep Neuromuscular Blockage: a Prospective Observational Study.
