Benefits of IONM Services
How PureVue Diagnostics Benefits Your Surgical Team
Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a growing field within neurology, orthopedics and general surgery. IONM uses a variety of neurophysiologic modalities to detect signs of potential injury to neural structures while a patient is undergoing surgery. An early warning to the surgeon about signal changes may prevent permanent neurologic disability. Since all monitoring is done in real time, the work pace is fast. Surgery centers are continuing to bring more complex surgeries to the outpatient setting and PVD is the expert in IONM for these increasing specialties.
ASC’s are facing a monetary and patient issue when it comes to providing the latest technology and diagnostics needed for each surgery. PVD’s ambulatory surgery program is the leading program to reduce surgery center overall costs so centers can provide more IONM services to surgeries that need it and not have to decline a service based on cost.
PVD has a 3 tier process working with Surgeons: Latest Technology, Patient Education, Increased Outcomes.
Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is a key technology during surgical procedures. The use of IONM provides additional information and helps to maintain nerve integrity, neural pathways and brain function. PVD’s industry-leading innovation is making a major contribution to clinical risk management and the reduction of neurological impairment during surgical procedures.
Intraoperative neuromonitoring is primarily used in specialist areas. These include neurosurgery, cardiothoracic surgery, ENT surgery, orthopedics, emergency surgery, vascular surgery, visceral surgery and general surgery. The use of IONM helps to reduce risks of impairment to neurophysiologically-relevant nerve structures during a surgical intervention or possible impairment of nerve function as a result of improper positioning of the patient. Using targeted neurostimulation, nerve structures can be identified and potential impairment prevented by adapting or adopting changes to surgical approach. This enables surgeons to focus on optimizing the intervention whilst maintaining function.
IONM is recognized as a standard of care during medical procedures which place a patient’s neurological system at risk. IONM assists in identifying and preventing iatrogenic damage to delicate neural structures by utilizing a variety of monitoring techniques. Our neurophysiologists provide timely alerts to the surgical team and communicate the status of neural structures effectively. Continually evolving, IONM is utilized in a growing number of neurosurgical, orthopedic and general surgery procedures.
