Inspire surgical knowledge assessment
A self-test on hypoglossal nerve stimulator (Inspire) surgical anatomy and operative technique.
For ENT residents & surgeons
Studying for it? The resident education center walks the operation step by step, with sixteen operative clips. More for surgical trainees — including the interactive NIM signal trainer, the streamlined instrument set, and annotated operative video — is on the health care professionals page.
14 multiple-choice questions covering neck incision planning, hypoglossal nerve dissection, NIM electrode placement, cuff inclusion and exclusion, and intraoperative troubleshooting. You’ll get instant feedback after each answer and a score with a full review at the end.
This assessment is an educational resource for surgical trainees and does not constitute training certification, credentialing, or a substitute for hands-on instruction. Answers reflect the operative approach of Ryan Nord, MD; technique varies by surgeon and institution.
