Background: Unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) procedures have become much more common in the United States in recent years, with >40,000 UKAs performed annually. However, it is estimated that 10% to 40% of UKAs fail and thus require conversion to total knee arthroplasty (TKA). In the field of total joint arthroplasty, robotic-assisted surgeries have demonstrated advantages such as better accuracy and precision of implant positioning and improved restoration of a neutral mechanical axis.

The Interpolated Twitch Technique with electrical nerve stimulation (ENS) is the considered gold-standard to assess voluntary activation (VA) but causes discomfort. Magnetic nerve stimulation (MNS) offers a painless alternative, though its validity and reliability remain underexplored.
