This overview is intended to explain in detail the possibilities of neuromuscular monitoring that are available to the anaesthetist. Apart from the measurement of clinical parameters, the testing of neuromuscular function with the aid of a nerve stimulator represents a useful supplementation of intraoperative and possibly also postoperative, patient monitoring. Using nerve stimulators - which need to meet certain technical requirements - stimulation can be carried out at various parts of the body. The types of stimulation commonly employed today include single-twitch, tetanus and train-of-four, posttetanic potentiation and doubleburst stimulation. These procedures, together with their advantages and disadvantages, are described in detail. For the recording of the responses to nerve stimulation, a number of different methods can be employed. In addition to visual or tactile methods, mechanomyography, accelography and evoked EMG are commonly used.
