Intra-operative neurophysiological monitoring in patients with pre-operative neurological deficit: its feasibility and high-risk factors for failed monitoring
Abstract:Objective. To analyze the performance of intra-operative
neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) including somatosensory evoked
potentials (SEP) and motor evoked potentials (MEP) in patients with
pre-operative neurological deficit and to identify the high-risk factors
for failed IONM. Methods. Patients with pre-operative
neurological deficit undergoing spinal surgery between October 2010 and
August 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. The presence or absence of
SEP and MEP of target muscles were separately recorde… Show more
