At EPIOM, we believe that teamwork makes the dream work, especially in the operating room. The collaboration between surgeons and neuromonitoring specialists is a key factor in successful surgeries and patient safety.

Let’s break down how this teamwork happens:

Before the operation, we meet with the surgical team to discuss the procedure and plan our monitoring approach. This ensures everyone is on the same page. On the day of surgery, we set up our equipment in the operating room, working closely with the surgical team to make sure everything is in place without getting in their way.

San Antonio Neuro Monitoring

As the operation progresses, we keep a constant eye on the patient’s nervous system. If we spot any changes, we immediately alert the surgeon. This real-time communication is crucial for patient safety. Sometimes, surgeons need to change their approach during an operation. Our monitoring helps inform these decisions, allowing for safer adjustments. After the operation, we discuss our findings with the surgical team. This helps everyone understand how the patient’s nervous system responded during surgery.

This collaboration brings several benefits:

By working together, we can catch and address potential issues more quickly, improving patient safety. Our feedback helps surgeons work more accurately, especially in delicate areas, leading to better surgical precision. Both surgeons and neuromonitoring specialists learn from each other, leading to better care for future patients.

At EPIOM, we’ve been fostering these collaborative relationships for almost 20 years in the San Antonio area. Our team includes board-certified neurologists who work closely with surgeons to provide the highest level of care.

We believe that this teamwork approach is a big part of why we’ve become a trusted name in neuromonitoring. It’s not just about having the right equipment or knowledge – it’s about how we use these tools together with surgical teams to benefit patients.

If you’re preparing for a surgery that involves neuromonitoring, you can feel confident knowing that you’ll have a whole team of experts working together for your safety. Don’t hesitate to ask your doctor about how they work with neuromonitoring specialists. At EPIOM, we’re always happy to explain our collaborative approach and how it benefits our patients.  Learn more at: https://epiomneuro.com.
