Intraoperative nerve monitoring system NVM5®

spine surgery

Core to the NuVasive philosophy of facilitating reproducible outcomes in spine surgery is the procedural integration of neurophysiology and computer-assisted surgery technologies. About NVM5 The NVM5 platform is a comprehensive set of intraoperative technologies specifically designed for spine surgery, including multimodality monitoring of the spinal cord and nerves, as well as refinements to the spinal rod-bending technology Bendini®. NVM5 modalities include: Stimulated electromyography (EMG) Free-run EMG Motor evoked potentials (MEP) Somatosensory evoked p Capabilities of the NVM5 platform in spine surgery include: Nerve avoidance and navigation Nerve monitoring and instrument navigation Spinal cord monitoring Peripheral sensory nerve monitoring Computer-assisted, rod-bending technology Intraoperative angular assessment tools When do you need NVM5 monitoring? Your physician might determine that intraoperative NVM5 EMG, MEP and/or SSEP monitoring is a good option for you if you require surgery in your cervical, thoracic, or lumbar regions, such as: Lumbar decompression Lumbar interbody fusion from any approach: anterior (ALIF), posterior (PLIF, TLIF), lateral (XLIF®) Lumbar pedicle screw instrumentation Lumbar total disc replacement Cauda equina surgery Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) Cervical total disc replacement Posterior cervical fusion (PCF) Spinal cord tumor resections Scoliosis surgery Thoracic vertebroplasty
