Study Overview
Brief Summary
Participants to be enrolled in this study will have been scheduled to have laparoscopic genitourinary surgery and EPAD monitoring as part of their clinical care intraoperatively. Patients scheduled for genitourinary surgery are often at risk for developing nerve injuries due to intraoperative positioning.
Somatosensory evoked potential devices (SSEP) are commonly used to detect pending injury to peripheral nerves. The purpose of the present study is to use SSEP monitoring to determine the incidence and potential causes of significant changes in SSEP waveforms and correlate these changes with neurologic status of the brachial plexus after robotic surgery.
