Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effect of a Narcotic Free Total Intravenous Anesthesia on the Outcome and Patient Safety During Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
This study will help the investigators learn more about the best way to give anesthesia for these kinds of surgery. The investigators will be using 2 different groups of medications that is commonly used in ACDF surgery, one group has a Narcotic, and the other group does not. The investigators wish to test whether a narcotic free anesthetic will result in an overall safer surgery, better patient recovery, and satisfaction. The investigators think also that eliminating the Narcotic from the Anesthetic regimen will allow patients to recover faster after surgery , and consume less pain medicines in the postoperative period.
