摘要
The paper introduces a monitoring system of muscle relaxant actionduring the anaesthesia operation,which is based on measurement of acceleration.The monitor consists of an acceleration transducer,a nerve stimlation and a microcomputer unit.The transducer can be fastened to the thumb,and the signal of thethumb movement in response to ulnar nerve stimulation is measured and registeredin the computing unit. In daily clinical practice it has proved possible,using this newapparatus, to achieve reliable evaluation of nuromuscular transimission functionand to contribute to improve anesthesia quality and patient care.
