title: "Twitch box": a new device to monitor neuromuscular blockade.
abstract: It is proposed that this "twitch box" be used whenever monitoring of neuromuscular transmission is indicated, since it is simple to use under clinical conditions, does not require critical placement or adjustment of the hand, produces quantitative information comparable to the force transducer, and is safe.
