INTRAOPERATIVE ELECTROPHYSIOLOGIC MONITORING DURING SPINE SURGERY
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 1998, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
During spine surgery assesing the integrity of the spinal cord can be difficult. To avoid complications like compression, streching and derangement in circulation it is important to be able to evaluate the neurologic status during surgery. The electrophysiologic monitoring techniques and/or Wake-Up test are stili performed for this reason. Elecrophysiologic recording demands the full attention of an experienced in operative monitoring of SEPs and other monitoring techniques, whether neurologist, neurosurgeon, or anesthesiologist, must be aviable to interpret the vvaveforms acquired during anesthesia and operation.
