Physician Involvement and Oversight
In the traditional medical model, a surgical neurophysiologist always works with a consulting neurologist. Surgical neurophysiologists do not and should not work without physician oversight.
Sentient has led the industry in providing physicians trained in electrophysiology, neurophysiology, and intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring to work with our surgical neurophysiologist during surgery. Known as consulting neurologists, these individuals are part of our “real time” monitoring program that consists of transmitting data from the operating room to the neurologist in real-time. The consulting neurologist interprets the data that is provided by the surgical neurophysiologist and communicates via voice and instant messaging during the entire surgery. When appropriate, our consulting neurologists speak with the surgeon regarding changes in data.
With the number of full-time and dedicated consulting neurologists we employ, we are able to provide this type of quality assurance and added protection during all of our surgeries on a 24/7 365 day basis.
