Subject: Updated neuromuscular blocking agent alert in Med Manager

Beginning today, the pop-up alert for neuromuscular blocking agents (NMB) in Med Manager has been updated. The purpose of the alert is to provide a verification checklist for different types of NMB orders. 
 
The goal is to ensure patient safety: 
1. By verifying ventilator status
2. By promoting the use of appropriate sedation and analgesia in these patients
 
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
