Summary
A 47-year-old male is scheduled for a surgical repair of his cervical spine. He was in a high-speed motor vehicle accident 1 week ago and has been in a cervical collar since. Does this patient require SSEP and/or MEP monitoring? Why? If SSEP/MEP monitoring is used, how will this affect your anesthesia? Would a wake-up test be better than SSEP/MEP monitoring?
