NDT255 — Spinal, Cranial, and Vascular Surgery Overview and Intraoperative Neuromonitoring
3 CR Students will participate in an online, semi-asynchronous class environment which will focus on overviews of select surgical procedures and intraoperative neuromonitoring paradigms. Students will identify the most common types of surgery to request intraoperative neuromonitoring and the relevant pathophysiology seen in these types of surgical cases. Students will then apply their understanding to predict critical points in varying surgical procedures that place specific neurological structures at the highest relative risk. Students will use this understanding to explain the design of various monitoring plans. Prerequisite(s): Admission to the Intraoperative Neuromonitoring Certificate program Course
