Intraoperative Neuromonitoring During Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion [PDF]
Objective To review the evidence for the use of electromyography (EMG), motor-evoked potentials (MEPs), and somatosensory-evoked potentials (SSEPs) intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) strategies during lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF), as well as

Single trial somatosensory evoked potential extraction with ARX filtering for a combined spinal cord intraoperative neuromonitoring technique [PDF]
Background: When spinal cord functional integrity is at risk during surgery, intraoperative neuromonitoring is recommended. Tibial Single Trial Somatosensory Evoked Potentials (SEPs) and H-reflex are here used in a combined neuromonitoring method: both

Impact of EMG Changes in Continuous Vagal Nerve Monitoring in High-Risk Endocrine Neck Surgery [PDF]
Background: Continuous vagal intraoperative neuromonitoring (CIONM) of the recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) may reduce the risk of RLN lesions during high-risk endocrine neck surgery such as operation for large goiter potentially requiring transsternal ...

Recent developments of intraoperative neuromonitoring in thyroidectomy [PDF]
At present, intraoperative neuromonitorization (IONM) with surface electrode-based endotracheal tube (ETT) is a standard method in thyroidectomy and can be performed either intermittently IONM (I-IONM) or continuously IONM (C-IONM). Despite the valuable contribution of I-IONM to the thyroidectomy, it still has limitations regarding the recording ...

Thyroid reoperation using intraoperative neuromonitoring [PDF]
Thyroid reoperations are at a high risk of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury. The aim of the study was to investigate whether the use of intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) can aid in the RLN identification and minimize the risk of its injury, in comparison with visual RLN identification.This was a retrospective cohort study of patients who ...
