Intraoperative monitoring, or IOM, is a technique used during surgery to monitor the condition of a patient’s nervous system throughout the surgical procedure. Monitoring the condition of the nervous system helps prevent damage to the spinal cord, brain, or nerves. Therefore, the use of intraoperative monitoring reduces the risk of surgery-related nerve damage. IOM is often used during procedures such as spine or brain surgery, where surgical complications may cause a loss of neurological function. Intraoperative monitoring of nerves is also referred to as intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring or intraoperative neuromonitoring.
