University of Virginia reviews monitoring outcomes with Impulse Monitoring, Inc.
Intraoperative neuromonitoring is becoming the standard of care for many more spinal surgeries, especially with deformity correction and instrumentation. The authors reviewed the University of Virginia Health System' neuromonitored spine cases over the past four years to see the immediate intraoperative and postoperative clinical findings when an intraoperative neuromonitoring event was noted. The main question addressed in this review is how has multimodality intraoperative neuromonitoring affected the authors ability to avoid potential neurologic injury during spine surgery.
