Peripheral nerve stimulators are extensivesly used for monitoring neuro-muscular blockade after administration of muscle relaxant in the operation theatre as well as in ICU. Different stimulation modalities were introduced into practice to take advantage of the characteristic features of non-depolarizing neuromuscular blockade such as fade, post-tetanic facilitation. Increase in awareness of the problems of postoperative residual neuromuscular blockade in recent years has increased its use.
