relaxants in the operating room have T4/T1 ratios <0.7-0.8 in the PACU. Respiratory and pharyngeal muscle function can be adversely affected during minimal neuromuscular blockade. Studies in awake volunteers and surgical patients have demonstrated that T4/T1 ratios of 0.7 - 0.9 are associated with impaired airway protective reflexes, upper airway obstruction, a decreased hypoxic ventilatory response, and post-operative hypoxemia. The incidence and severity of residual neuromuscular blockade at the time of tracheal extubation will be evaluated to determine how these influence the length of stay in the operating room and PACU.
