The tri-axial accelerometer should be attached to the contracting appendage of the patient, to measure the strength of the contraction resulting from the applied electrical stimulus. Accelerometry is used in Train-of-Four (TOF), Double Burst (DBS), Post Tetanic Count (PTC), Supra Maximal Current (SMC) and Auto modes to facilitate monitoring of the efcacy of the neuromuscular blocking agent.
• The repeat mode can be activated by setting the burst counter to greater than 1.
• The device will automatically start a countdown according to the ‘refractory timer’ or ‘repeat timer’ setting depending on the confgured settings for the current mode.
• Disable the repeat mode by sending the stop stimulation command.
