Measure
Subjects Undergoing Orthopedic or Abdominal Surgery
Subjects undergoing orthopedic or abdominal surgery requiring neuromuscular blockade. Subjects all receive the neuromuscular blockade drug Rocuronium based on study protocol. Depending on depth of block (subjectively assessed by TOF response), Neostigmine, Sugammadex, or no reversal drug is used to reverse block prior to extubation.
