Title: A practical approach to neurophysiologic intraoperative monitoring
Description: Covers all aspects of neurophysiologic intraoperative monitoring (NIOM), which is increasingly being used to continuously assess the functional integrity of a patient s nervous system during surgery. With training in NIOM seldom available in traditional programs, this book is a practical source for essential information on the clinical practice of NIOM. It is divided into two convenient sections: Section One, Basic Principles, covers the modalities used in monitoring as well as the rarely discussed topics of remote monitoring, billing, ethical issues, and a buyer s guide for setting up a laboratory. Section Two reviews anatomy, physiology, and surgery of the various procedures, followed by details of the monitoring modalities and their interpretive criteria.
