Electrophysiological techniques, principally those for recording  sensory and motor evoked potentials, offer a means of continuously  assessing the conduction of nerve signals up and down the spinal cord  and hence the possibility of detecting a defect at an early stage,  when the cause may be reversible. This form of monitoring is now  accepted practice in many countries.\u003cbr\u003e  The main contributors to the \u003cem\u003eHandbook\u003c\/em\u003e are surgeons,  neurophysiologists and anaesthetists at the forefront of research.  From the United States, where practice has been most widespread, come  the results of the first large-scale, multi-centre survey into  monitoring methods and their effectiveness. The research papers  forming the remainder of the text provide an indication of the high  level of current interest and the likely direction of future  developments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1993-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792388333\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-011-1416-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 450\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44541685530764,"sku":"9780792388333","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792388333.jpg?v=1771522506","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792388333","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
