Abstract
Kyphoscoliosis is a progressive disorder that requires to be corrected surgically before adolescence sets in. Intraoperative Neurophysiological Monitoring (IONM) has emerged as a standard practice because it signicantly reduces neurological morbidity. Although much has been written on IONM in adult spine surgery, very little has been published related to the neurological outcome in paediatric population with continuous IONM. We report three patient with Paediatric kyphoscoliosis who underwent correction and had continuous IONM done over six months at a tertiary care center. We recommend that effective use of IONM would involve a checklist to manage the changes in neurological signals and good teamwork of anesthesiologist, surgeon, and neurophysiologist to respond to these changes
