Continuous intraoperative neurophysiology monitoring is a service where a specialist oversees your nervous system's function during surgery, from a nearby or remote location. This is done every 15 minutes and is focused solely on you. It helps ensure surgical safety by identifying any potential nervous system changes promptly.

This procedure, known as an electromyography (EMG), involves placing tiny needles into your arm or leg muscles to measure their electrical activity. It's a limited study, meaning only specific muscles are tested. This helps identify any muscle or nerve dysfunction.

This procedure, known as an electromyography (EMG), involves inserting a small needle into your arm or leg muscles to measure their electrical activity. This complete study helps diagnose issues with nerves or muscles, providing valuable data for your treatment plan.

The measurement of brain wave activity, also known as an EEG, is a non-invasive test that records electrical patterns in your brain. This is done when you're asleep or in a coma, to help understand brain function and identify any abnormalities.

This procedure involves placing small pads (electrodes) on your arms and legs. These electrodes send gentle electric signals to specific areas, and the responses are measured. This helps assess the health of your nerves and muscles.

Nerve conduction studies are tests that measure how well your nerves are working. In a 1-2 studies procedure, a small electrical current is applied to 1 or 2 specific nerves. This helps to identify any nerve damage or dysfunction by assessing the speed and strength of nerve signals.
