## Indications for use
The OrthMon system is intended for use to record, monitor and stimulate/record biopotential signals including electromyograph (EMG), evoked response and nerve/muscle potentials and for the intraoperative diagnosis of acute dysfunction in corticospinal axonal conduction. The system provides feedback to the surgeon and OR team to assist in the localization and assessment of spinal nerves and verification of placement of spinal instrumentation to avoid injury to at risk nerve roots.
