Supply chain- IOM shortages
It seems that we are heading for supply shortages due to the supply chain issues presented by the closed Straight of Hormuz and Iran war. There is an emerging shortage on syringes and that falls into EMG needles as well. There is a shortage on the PTFE coating for EMG needles. There is shortage of the rubber coating for the disposable wires.
I believe this combined with the fact that IDR awards are not being paid will change neumonitoring forever. Most likely most cases won’t be able to be monitored but perhaps reduced to more needed cases like XLIFs
