Claim 0:
1. A paralysis monitoring system comprising:
a nerve stimulation device configured to deliver a series of low voltage electrical impulses to a nerve, wherein the low voltage electrical impulses are 4 millivolts or less;
wherein the nerve stimulation device is configured to transmit the low voltage electrical impulses to a patient based on a body mass index of the patient;
wherein the nerve stimulation device is configured to transmit the low voltage electrical impulses in the range of about 0.5 millivolts to 1.5 millivolts to patients having a body mass index in a first range;
wherein the nerve stimulation device is configured to transmit the low voltage electrical impulses in the range of about 1.5 millivolts to 4 millivolts to patients having a body mass index in a second range that is higher than the first range;
a first recording device configured to record electrical activity associated with an evoked muscle response to the nerve stimulation device;
a second recording device configured to record electrical activity associated with the series of low voltage electrical impulses to the nerve;
wherein the first recording device is configured to be placed over a target muscle group associated with the nerve; and
wherein the second recording device is configured to be disposed away from the target muscle group.
