1. A method of detecting an induced muscle response comprising:
- monitoring a mechanical parameter of a muscle;
computing an amount of muscle jerk from the monitored parameter;
comparing the computed muscle jerk to a jerk threshold; and
identifying the occurrence of an induced muscle response if the computed muscle jerk exceeds the threshold.
