Spinal surgery and NAPZMG's? - TeacherturnedMT
Posted: Jul 29, 2011
Hi everyone. I am doing a spinal fusion surgery and the dictator says that for Intraoperative Monitoring he used NAP ZMG's (he says it just like that NAPZMG's). Not sure what he means. Can't find those acronyms in my book. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Could be MEP EMGs. Second part most probably is - Olive
[ In Reply To ..]EMGs. Not certain about first part.
I agree about EMG - TeacherturnedMT
[ In Reply To ..]I agree that the second part has to be EMG..he just swallows his words so much! Thanks for your help.
