Muscle relaxant is usually needed for surgery. However, the optimal depth of neuro-muscular blockade is still on debate. Deep neuro-muscular blockade may benefit the patients during surgery, but may increase the risk of residual blockade after surgery. Residual blockade has been reported to increase risk of morbidity. In this study, we tend to observe the postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing abdominal surgery under general anesthesia. And to compare the outcomes in patients received different depth of neuro-muscular blockade.
