[x_text style=”color:#000000;font-size:18px;”][dropcap]A[/dropcap]ny surgery involves risk to the patient, but this is especially true for procedures that involve the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord) and peripheral nerves. However, it has become standard to monitor the central nervous system during surgery through a process called Intraoperative Neuromonitoring (IONM). This helps to ensure patient safety as well as provide valuable real-time guidance and feedback to the attending physician. Because of the success of IONM in improving neurosurgical outcomes, neuromonitoring is now standard of care for many other types of surgeries as well including but not limited to orthopedic, cardiovascular, peripheral nerve, and ENT procedures.

Revolution Monitoring’s multi-modal IONM approach also provides additional benefits to the patient. We prevent loss of limb by constant motor and sensory testing of all extremities. In addition, through real-time monitoring of brain wave activity (EEG), we reliably guide anesthesiologists in order to ensure patients are truly unconscious and anesthetized in any given surgical procedure. IONM is also used to prevent loss or impairment of vision, hearing, taste, touch, or smell and can detect a stroke or brain ischemia as it occurs.

Before you go into the operating room, ask your physician who is monitoring your surgical procedure.

For more information, please contact us or ask your physician about IONM to schedule Revolution Monitoring for your surgery.[/x_text]

“I felt safer knowing that my surgeon was using Revolution Monitoring. She had another tool to work with.”Satisfied Patient
[x_text style=”color:#000000;font-size:18px;”]Before IONM, the only method to determine if a patient had suffered central nervous system injury such as brain damage, stroke, or paralysis during a surgery was to perform a “wake-up test” in the middle of the procedure. The surgeon would instruct the anesthesiologist to wake up the patient during the procedure and ask them to perform basic motor functions such as movement of their arms and legs in response to verbal commands. This was not only unreliable, it required the patient to be consciously aware of the incomplete procedure being performed. Without IONM, the “wake-up test” is the only means of verifying the integrity of a patient’s central nervous system during surgery. IONM protects a patient’s central nervous system without needing to be woken up during surgery, and is far more reliable as it provides real-time feedback through the entirety of the procedure.
