Summary

Neuromuscular monitoring is used to evaluate neuromuscular function intraoperatively and to ensure complete neuromuscular recovery at the end of anaesthesia. Therefore, the lack of reliable neuromuscular monitoring devices that are not cumbersome to use is a major shortcoming for anaesthesia. A recently developed mechanomyography (MMG) device may meet these partially unmet needs due to its measurement of the patient's contractile force instead of its surrogates (i.e., acceleration, velocity), including the response to physiologically relevant tetanic stimulation. However, it is unclear whether the reliability of the newly developed MMG device is similar to or better than the currently available gold standard of neuromuscular monitoring based on electromyography (EMG).
