First seen Jan 04, 2026 · Last updated May 17, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study tested a device called NeuroVision that monitors nerve activity during spine surgery. It alerts the surgeon in real time if a screw is placed incorrectly, potentially preventing nerve injury. The study involved 60 adults undergoing lumbar fusion surgery. The goal was to see if this real-time monitoring gives useful extra information compared to standard checks done after screw placement.
