Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: - Men and women aged > 18 years; - All-round oriented patients capable of providing information preoperatively; - Surgical intervention is planned within the next 3 days. Due to the size and/or comorbidities, monitoring in the intensive or intermediate care unit is necessary; - Written consent of the patient to the study; - Start of data collection is the measurement of the preoperative signal level in terms of a baseline measurement; - The next measurement phase takes place postoperatively with the patient awake again, postoperatively for a maximum of 24 hours.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: - pregnancy; - Neurological diseases associated with a restriction of peripheral conduction of stimuli such as - Cross-sectional symptoms - Muscular dystrophy - Polyneuropathy (also in advanced diabetes mellitus, C2 abusus) - Critical Illness Polyneuropathy (CIP) - clinical suspicion, - multiple sclerosis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, denervative neurological diseases - Cardiac pacemakers or electric defibrillators - no damage to such devices by the applied currents has so far been proven. We want to avoid potential damage to the devices and thus endangering the patient in any case! - Subsequently withdrawn consent to participate in the study.
