Intraoperative Neuromonitoring: Protecting Your Nerves During Surgery
In this episode, Chris speaks with Ronier Abarca, an intraoperative neuromonitoring specialist, who monitors neurological functions during surgery (the intraoperative part). His job is to keep the surgeon informed on what is happening to the nervous system around the area where the surgeon is operating - usually during neck or back surgery. Ronier shares what a typical day in the life can look like, how to prepare before a scheduled surgery, and the importance of communication in this field of work.
