During a thoracic laminectomy, a rapid loss of the right PTN cortical responses occurs.
The cervical response is too poor to evaluate, and the popiteal fossa responses are
unchanged. What should you do first? - Answer- inform the surgeon immediately and

response amplitudes are unchanged. What is the appropriate action to take? - Answer-
Check the latencies of the PF and MN responses to see if they are also shifted,
indicating a possiblle temp effect. Verify by checking the patient's body temp
Midazolam is what type of drug? - Answer- Benzodiazepine
