Course description
Mapping techniques identify and thus help preserve functionally viable neural tissue. Monitoring procedures can detect early, reversible neurophysiologic dysfunction and guide changes in the surgical and/or anesthesia management, towards avoidance of permanent injury. The preventive value of intraoperative neurophysiology not only improves patient care but can also significantly reduce health care costs associated with poor postoperative neurologic outcomes such as loss of motor function. It is increasingly being utilized to safely perform high risk and complex surgical procedures.
This course is targeted to Intraoperative Neurophysiologists, Clinical Neurophysiologists, IONM technologists, Neurologists, Surgeons, Neurosurgeons, Orthopaedic surgeons, Vascular surgeons, Cardiac surgeons, ENT surgeons and Anesthesiologists.
