Stabilometry: A new tool for the measurement of recovery following general anaesthesia for out-patients

Abstract

A stabilometer has been used to measure changes in the activity of postural muscles during the later stages of recovery from anaesthesia. It is concluded that stabilometry might be a useful tool with which to measure and record the extent of recovery and that this might be especially useful for use after out-patient surgery. © 1978 Canadian Anesthesiologists.
