Why Synapse Neuromonitoring?
• IONM Reduces complication rates in many different surgical procedures in multiple disciplines. • IONM provides reassurance to surgeons during high risk cases and affords for improved surgical outcomes, often allowing surgeons to extend the limits of surgery for maximal repair/correction. • IONM also provides reassurance to patient’s families that their loved ones are being cared for in the most effective manor. IONM provides the surgeon with warning of impending injury to Neural systems. Early warning allows for evaluation of variable tolerance limits of each patient individually. • More recently FDA approved transcranial motor evoked potential monitoring affords the surgeon with critical information regarding corticospinal tracts. • Significant advances in multi-monitoring modalities and in the sophisticated equipment available for IONM monitoring, provide the surgeon with an invaluable combination of sensory and motor information from both peripheral and central nervous systems. •
