(IONM)
Intraoperative Neurological Monitoring monitors neural structures
during Spinal, Neurological, Vascular, or (ENT) Otolaryngology
surgery. Free running (LIVE) data, stimulated triggered
data, and averaged data is recorded throughout the surgical procedure
to help alert the surgeon of any unexpected changes with the goal
to prevent further damage to nerves, spinal cord and brain tissues.
Several electrodes are placed on the scalp, neck, arms
and legs to record the data.
No
