Abstract:ObjectiveConsidering spinal deformity patients with pre‐operative neurological deficit were associated with more intra‐operative iatrogenic neurological complications than those without, intra‐operative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) has been used for detecting possible iatrogenic injury timely. However, the IONM waveforms are often unreliable. To analyze the performance of intra‐operative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) including somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) and motor evoked potentials (ME… Show more
