Monitoring the depth of neuromuscular block is vital to ensure patient safety during anesthesia and to minimize the risk of postoperative complications. The most accurate way to do this is to use quantitative monitoring, which is also the recommended practice in the latest guidelines from ASA. Despite this, quantitative neuromuscular monitoring is not that commonly used for pediatric patients. Why is that? Can the new neuromuscular blockade guidelines lead the way for a change in pediatric anesthesia too?

In this roundtable webinar, you get to listen to a panel of experts sharing their experiences and insights on the challenges faced in pediatric anesthesia. Listen in to get practical guidance on how to incorporate quantitative neuromuscular monitoring into your clinical practice and how to stay ahead of the new ASA guidelines for neuromuscular blockade management, ultimately helping you to elevate the standard of care for your pediatric patients.
