Dose Responsiveness as a Measure of Clinical Effectiveness During Neuromonitored Spine Surgery

Enrolling by invitation

Conditions studied: Intervertebral Disc Degeneration, Intervertebral Disc Displacement, Spinal Curvatures, Spinal Stenosis, Spondylitis, Spondylosis

In brief

Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IONM) is a tool used by neurophysiologists during spine surgery to prevent irreversible damage to the spinal cord during procedures through a system of alerts. This study investigates the effectiveness of IONM in 300 participants receiving spine surgery. The goal of this study is to refine the alert criteria for procedures in which IONM is used.
