1 | Market Overview
The global intraoperative neurophysiological monitoring (IONM) market is experiencing robust growth due to the increasing volume of complex neurological, orthopedic, and ENT surgeries that require real-time nerve function assessment. IONM uses advanced electrophysiological techniques to monitor neural pathways during surgery, thus reducing the risk of permanent nerve damage and enhancing surgical outcomes.
Technological advancements in neuromonitoring systems, real-time signal processing, wireless data transmission, and disposable electrode solutions are driving market expansion. Furthermore, favorable clinical guidelines, patient safety protocols, and surgeons' demand for precision tools are establishing IONM as a standard across operating rooms worldwide.
