Abstract
A method of optimally placing spinal cord stimulator (SCS) leads includes acquiring components of somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEPs), compound action potentials and triggered EMG; analyzing the waveforms; and quantifying waveform features in a single display such that a surgeon can quickly and easily determine optimal placement (as it relates to laterality and level of placement on the spinal cord) of SCS leads in a patient under general anesthesia without additional expert help.
