Quantitative Neuromuscular Monitoring and Gastric Bypass Surgery

This is a single site, prospective, non-blinded, non-randomized, before/after study. This study is designed to evaluate the impact of monitoring and reversal guidelines for neuromuscular blocking drugs on the post-operative outcomes for patients undergoing laparoscopic gastric bypass surgery.
