TwichView-guided Atricurium Dose Adjustment Trial

簡要摘要

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if using a monitor that measures muscle response can lower the amount of muscle relaxant medicine needed in adults who are treated in an intensive care unit (ICU) and need a continuous drip of a muscle relaxant called atracurium for more than 48 hours. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does using the monitor lower the infusion rate and total amount of atracurium given over 72 hours? Does using the monitor lower the complications related to atracurium use? Researchers will compare a group whose dose is guided by a muscle response monitor, aiming for a moderate level of muscle relaxation, to a group whose dose is guided by the usual bedside checks, to see if the monitor lowers the amount of medicine needed while keeping the same quality of care. Participants will: Receive atracurium as a continuous drip as part of their usual ICU treatment Have a small sensor placed on the wrist and hand to measure muscle response, if they are in the monitor group Be checked regularly by a nurse and a respiratory therapist, who will adjust the dose following a written plan Be observed closely for 72 hours, then followed until they leave the hospital .
