Abstract
In 1989 the Association of British Clinical Neurophysiologists (ABCN) expressed concern about the standards of spinal cord monitoring in the UK. There was also uncertainty about how much monitoring was actually going on during scoliosis and who was doing it. As a result, in 1990 a Joint Working Party was set up by the British Scoliosis Society (BSS) and the ABCN to evaluate the current state of cord monitoring in the UK and to produce an agreed ‘Code of Practice’.
