Y1 - 2014 N1 - T2 - Anesthesiology Core Review: Part One Basic Exam AB - The spinal cord is a complex portion of the nervous system involved in receiving, sending, and processing information from the outside world to the brain and vice versa. Many neurologic monitoring modalities exist to aid in the preservation of spinal cord integrity during surgical intervention. One of these modalities is spinal cord evoked potentials. Spinal cord evoked potentials are electrical activity generated in response to either a sensory or motor stimulus: hence, they are categorized as sensory evoked potentials and motor evoked potentials (MEPs). Monitoring requires special training, as well as appropriate equipment and sufficient operating room space.
