Warning criteria for MEP monitoring during carotid endarterectomy: a retrospective study of 571 patients

This study is the first to evaluate the correctness of the MEP warning criteria AMP, AUC and MOR with regard to false positive monitoring results in the context of CEA. All additional MEP warning criteria investigated produced an unacceptably high number of false positives and therefore may not be useful in carotid surgery for adequate detection of clamping-associated ischemia.
