Table 1 The number, percentage, and cumulative percentage of patients achieving specified ranges of the quotient of time to TOFratio=0 measured by TOF-Scan against the same time measured by TOF-Cuff.

| TOF – train-of-four; TOF-Cuff – a device designed for neuromuscular monitoring on an upper arm; TOF-Scan – a device designed for neuromuscular monitoring on a facial corrugator supercilii muscle. | |||
