“…IONM provides high sensitivity and specificity for the detection of spinal cord injury. Relative contraindications include seizure history, skull defects, intracranial electrodes, vascular clips, and cardiac pacemakers 13 . Despite most contraindications having fallen by the wayside, CI remains a contraindication 6,14 .…”

Case:Transcranial electric stimulation motor-evoked potentials (tcMEPs) are the most sensitive technique in multimodality intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) for posterior spinal fusion (PSF). The presence of a cochlear implant (CI) is considered a contraindication to IONM because of theoretical risk of implant device and local tissue damage from voltages induced by tcMEPs. We present the case of a 10-year-old girl with CI who underwent successful PSF with tcMEP and monopolar electrocautery (MoEC) without perioperative complications or CI damage.Conclusion:With proper precautions, such as MoEC usage at a minimal voltage, motor-evoked potential monitoring can be safely performed in pediatric patients with CI undergoing PSF.

“…Over the years, different application of TMS have been proposed and tested: single-pulse (spTMS), pairedpulse (ppTMS), repetitive (rTMS) and pattern stimulations such as theta bursts (Rossini et al, 2015). The first devices capable of delivering only a single impulse found wide use in the clinical field in the evaluation of specific neurophysiological parameters: for example, the inducible response in a peripheral muscle after having detected the primary motor cortex (M1), in order to evaluate the clinical status of the pathway which, from the cortex, carries the signal to the peripheral muscles, generating the motor evoked potential (MEP) Jameson, 2023). In the experimental investigations, single pulse stimulations immediately found wide use in the field of neuroscience, to evaluate the role of a brain area in a specific function of interest.…”

Study purpose. At the end of the twentieth century, the development of highly reliable and painless non-invasive transcranial brain stimulation techniques and devices has aroused great scientific and clinical interest in numerous fields. In neuroscience, since the introduction of innovative and non-invasive devices such as the brain stimulator, the investigation of cortical processes and their neural basis has played a fundamental role. Furthermore, neuroscientists are attracted to therapeutic applications for the treatment of food craving. This narrative review is aimed to explain the growing and constant interest of neuroscientific experimentation in the field of non-invasive transcranial stimulation. Material and methods. After an introduction explaining the historical evolution of NIBS, we will try to provide an overview of the two stimulation techniques (TMS and tDCS); we will describe the different types of stimulation that can be performed using these techniques, the excitatory/inhibitory effects, and the various mechanisms of action at the level of brain activity. Results. We will also provide some elucidations regarding the implications of the facilitative/inhibitory effects, and how these stimulation methods can be used to advance knowledge of the neurofunctional organization of the brain. Conclusion. The results of the study showed the effect of brain neuromodulation on sports and nutrition.
