The successfulness of neuromonitoring in the operating room and intensive care unit relies on an adequate choice of the neurophysiological tool (electroencephalogram or evoked potentials), which should correctly target the neural structure at risk, be sensitive to the pathophysiological process feared, and correctly disentangle pathological and non-pathological factors. The neurophysiological information should be coded into a message readily interpretable by non-neurologists and continuous neuromonitoring should be provided. (C) 1998 Elsevier, Paris.
