BACKGROUND: In clinical research, neuromuscular monitoring must present a stable response for a period of 2 to 5 min before administration of a neuromuscular blocking agent. The time required to reach this stable response may be shortened by applying a 5-s tetanic stimulus. OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to test whether tetanic stimulation interferes with onset and recovery times after a single dose of rocuronium 0.6 mg kg-1 followed by spontaneous recovery. DESIGN: A randomised, open-label, controlled trial. SETTING: A single-centre trial, study period from January 2014 to July 2015. PATIENTS: Fifty children aged 2 to 11 years scheduled for elective paediatric surgery. INTERVENTION: Patients were randomly allocated to receive either tetanic stimulation (group T) or not (group C) before calibration of the neuromuscular monitor. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Onset and recovery times. Initial and final T1 height, time to obtain initial T1 height stability and monitor settings were also analysed. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in mean onset time [(C: 57.5 (+/- 16.9) vs. T: 58.3 (+/- 31.2) s; P = 0.917]. Mean times to normalised train-of-four (TOF) ratios of 0.7, 0.8 and 0.9 were significantly shorter in the tetanic stimulation group [C: 40.1 (+/-7.9) vs. T: 34.8 (+/-10) min; P = 0.047, C: 43.8 (+/-9.4) vs. T: 37.4 (+/-11) min; P = 0.045 and C: 49.9 (+/-12.2) vs. T: 41.7 (+/-13.1) min; P = 0.026, respectively]. The mean time required for T1 height stabilisation was similar in the two groups [C: 195.0 (+/- 203.0) vs. T: 116.0 (+/- 81.6) s; P = 0.093], but the initial and final T1 height values were significantly lower in the tetanic stimulation group (C: 98.0 vs. T: 82.7%; P
