Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IOM) has proven
itself a versatile technique that reduces the risks of acquiring
intraoperative neurological deficits, shortens operating time, and
lowers the costs of medical care and rehabilitation. It can also
reduce the risks of medical malpractice suits and serve as a
research tool to better understand nervous system disorders and
promote improved treatments. In Intraoperative Neurophysiological
Monitoring, Second Edition, the premier authority on the subject,
Aage R. Moller, has extensively expanded and rewritten his highly
regarded first edition to create a comprehensive, up-to-date
reference on IOM techniques and their anatomical and physiological
basis. In addition, the author has added new material on the
monitoring of the spinal motor system, sensory systems, peripheral
nerves, and in skull base surgery. Writing as a pioneer and leader
in the field, Dr. Moller provides practical information about how
to perform electrophysiological recordings in the operating room,
interpret the results, and present them to the surgeon. Included
are descriptions of methods for guiding the surgeon in such
operations as microvascular decompression and the implantation of
electrodes for deep brain stimulation and auditory prostheses.
Methods for mapping of the cerebral cortex, the brainstem, and the
spinal cord are also described, as well as practical procedures for
monitoring cranial motor nerves. Practical aspects of IOM including
requirements of equipment, reducing electrical and magnetic
interference, and how to work with other teams in the operating
room are discussed in detail. Comprehensive and up-to-date,
Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring, Second Edition, is an
authoritative survey of the theoretical and practical knowledge
needed to reduce the risks that occur in surgical operations
impacting the nervous system.
