The latest trend in neuromuscular monitoring: return of the electromyography [PDF]
Anesthesia and Pain Medicine, 2021 To reduce the risk of residual neuromuscular blockade, neuromuscular monitoring must be performed. Acceleromyography (AMG)-based neuromuscular monitoring was regarded as “clinical gold standard” and widely applied.

Perioperative and anesthetic deaths: toxicological and medico legal aspects [PDF]
, 2019 Background: Anesthesia has become safer during decades, though there is still a preventable mortality; the complexity of medical and surgical interventions, increasingly older and sicker patients, has created a host of new hazards in anesthesiology.
