Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potential Improvement in Cervical Spondylotic Myelopathy: Comparison of Cortical Stimulation Parameters.

CONCLUSIONS: MEPI is observed in a much larger proportion of cervical decompression surgery cases than previously thought. Intraoperative MEPI with longer-train cortical stimulation may reflect adequacy of decompression and provide additional guidance for the surgical procedure.
