Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
Motor Evoked Potentials are an aspect of intraoperative neuromonitoring, a tool used by neurophysiologists during surgery to prevent irreversible damage to the spinal cord during procedures. This study investigates the utility of three separate quadriceps MEP recording approaches over a total of 40 limbs (20 participants).
