Nerve Integrity Monitor
Electrode placement
The surgeon should insert the electrodes into the appropriate muscle location innervated by the monitored nerve. The surgeon
should then insert the ground electrode (green) and the stim return (white) as shown in the electrode placement diagram. Once the
surgeon places the electrodes on the patient, the surgeon needs to insert the other end of the electrodes into the patient interface
box to complete the electrode setup. NIM Vital systems include nerve and electrode placement guides that are color-coded to help
reduce confusion.
The electrode placement guide contains some, but not all, possible electrode placements. Press on the top right-hand corner
of the screen for an additional list of electrode placement guides.
