Use of Handheld Dynamometer As a Novel Tool to Assess Motor Function During Awake Craniotomy for Brain Lesions Located Within or Adjacent to the Motor Cortex: a Single-Center Pilot Study
Status: Completed
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Device
Study Type: Interventional
Study Phase: Not Applicable
SUMMARY
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the feasibility, safety and reliability of the use of handheld dynamometry in evaluating intraoperative motor function for patients undergoing awake craniotomy for the resection of brain lesions located within or adjacent to the motor cortex.
