Description

Using narrative text, lists, tables, and illustrations, this handbook discusses all practical aspects of neurophysiologic intraoperative monitoring. Divided into two sections, the first part of the book introduces the “Basic Principles” with chapters on operating room setup, monitoring techniques and modalities, remote data acquisition, anesthesia, billing, ethical issues, and includes a buyer's guide to IOM machines which is invaluable for anyone setting up a laboratory. The second part, “Clinical Methods”, reviews the use of IOM in various types of surgeries. Each chapter is co-written by a neurophysiologist and technologist and presents a brief overview of the particular surgery, relevant anatomy and hardware, monitoring modalities, data interpretation and warning criteria, and technical considerations.
