Abstract
A method for detecting an artificially induced neuromuscular response in a subject includes receiving a mechanomyography (MMG) output signal from a mechanical sensor in contact with a muscle of the subject; applying one or more conditioning filters to the MMG output signal to generate a conditioned signal and analyzing the conditioned signal to identify one or more candidate waveforms. Each candidate waveform meets one or more analog or digital signal characteristic criteria associated with an artificially induced neuromuscular response. The method then compares a first candidate waveform to a second candidate waveform to determine a degree of similarity between the first and second candidate waveforms, and provides an alert to a user that indicates detection of the artificially induced neuromuscular response when the degree of similarity exceeds a predetermined threshold.
