ON THE COVER:
Residual neuromuscular blockade can be avoided with quantitative neuromuscular monitoring. In this issue of Anesthesiology, Weigel et al. detail a professional practice initiative they conducted to attain documented train-of-four ratios greater than or equal to 0.90 in all patients to improve patient outcomes through reducing residual paralysis. In an accompanying editorial, Lane-Fall tells us how this new article demonstrates much about what anesthesiology has to learn from implementation science and quality improvement.
