Neurological monitoring: Intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring: More than 12 hours: With fewer than 8 cortical electrodes (electrocorticography, phase reversal and/or mapping)

Your nervous system has been examined and monitored during an operation.

The nervous system includes all the nerves in the body, as well as the brain and the spinal cord. The nerves run from the brain and spinal cord into the body. They convey information in the body. Nerves use electrical signals to convey information.

The operation involved opening up your skull. Sensors were attached to the surface of your brain. Sensors like these can be used to examine very specific areas in the brain.

Additional indicator

If necessary, additional letters are appended to OPS codes to indicate which side of the body is affected.

  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides

Further information

Note

Your doctor will assist you with any health-related questions and explain the OPS code to you in a direct consultation if necessary.
