Recently, we reported a new technique to augment motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) under general anesthesia, posttetanic MEP (p-MEP), in which tetanic stimulation of the peripheral nerve before transcranial stimulation enlarged amplitudes of MEPs from the muscle innervated by the nerve subjected to tetanic stimulation. In the present study, we tested whether tetanic stimulation of the left tibial nerve can also augment amplitudes of MEPs from the muscles which are not innervated by the nerve subjected to tetanic stimulation.
