Abstract

The chapters that follow present case examples of various applications of intraoperative monitoring. After a discussion of the patient problem, the application of monitoring is presented. The authors have provided examples of intraoperative monitoring (IOM) changes that may signal adverse neurophysiological conditions. When this occurs, a search for the etiology and possible corrective or supportive measures is important. This introduction attempts to provide an overview of that search since all team members must participate in that endeavor.
