What this trial measures
- Determine onset of peripheral nerve blockade + general anesthesia using surface EMG as measured by power of signal amplitude.Preoperative placement through resolution of motor blockade in the PACU. Timeframe being day of surgery- up to one day.
Performance of non-invasive surface EMG following administration of peripheral nerve blockade + general anesthesia. This will be assessed by EMG signal amplitude.
- Determine resolution of peripheral nerve blockade + general anesthesia using surface EMG as measured by power of signal amplitude.Preoperative placement through resolution of motor blockade in the PACU. Timeframe being day of surgery - up to one day.
Performance of non-invasive surface EMG following administration of peripheral nerve blockade and general anesthesia. This will be assessed by EMG signal amplitude.
- Determine density of peripheral nerve blockade + general anesthesia using surface EMG as measured by power of signal amplitude.Preoperative placement through resolution of motor blockade in the PACU. Timeframe being day of surgery - up to one day.
