MAPPING
- Reliably locate nerves in altered anatomy or anytime nerves are at risk
- Map location of nerve through tissue
- Localize nerve tissue obscured by scarring, tumor or bone
ASSESSMENT
- Determine stimulation threshold for motor response
- Test for changes in nerve function throughout the procedure
- Stimulate muscle to evaluate excursion in tendon and free muscle transfers
ELICITING A TETANIC CONTRACTION
- Confirm whether a tissue structure is a nerve
- Confirm with full tetanic contraction (vs a “twitch”)
- Identify individual fascicle groups within a nerve
