The method consists in the stimulation of a nerve and the detection and measurement of the response and is characterized in that the nerve stimulation is done in the skin which covers the muscles on which the detection of the response is performed. The apparatus comprises means (7, 8) for the application of the nerve stimulation, means (9) for the detection of the response and, optionally, means for the monitoring of the neuromuscular block, and it is characterized in that said means (7, 8, 9) are provided in a single body (14), which is a cuff of the type used for measuring arterial pressure, provided with means (9) for detection of pressure or connected to said means. It is not necessary to stimulate any peripheral nerves, and the apparatus is more compact and handy. <IMAGE> |
