20 Monitoring NMT
300
Dependent upon the selected stimulation mode, the following information is provided:
Auto mode
The figure below shows the NMT measurement in Auto mode.
1 NMT: Auto mode, Repeat Time 30 sec.
2 Time until next measurement or the time the measurement was taken.
3 Bar graph showing relative strength of each twitch. If a calibration has been made, the strength of
the calibration reference twitch is shown as a white line.
4 TOFrat expressed as %.
Manual mode
The figure below the NMT measurement in Manual mode.
1 NMT: Manual mode, (there is no Repeat Time).
2 Time the measurement was taken (Timestamp).
Recovery Time
Most NMT stimulation modes require a minimum neurophysiological recovery time and during this
recovery phase no new stimulation can be started. Also, you cannot start a measurement or calibration.
