Filter by:This study consisted of a randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate a Multimodal Analgesia (MMA) Protocol on patients undergoing Posterior Spinal Fusion. The purpose is to describe the narcotic requirements and usage during the perioperative period of posterior spinal fusion and instrumentation surgery with the implementation of multimodal anesthesia protocol. The study will consist of two parallel arms, with Group 1 receiving our MMA protocol and Group 2 receiving a traditional opioid-based regime. The primary outcome of this study will be the reported Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain at 12, 24, and 48 hours after surgery. We considered that our findings could contribute to the fight against the opioid crisis proving alternatives to opioids as feasible alternatives for pain management even in significant surgery, as is posterior spinal fusion with instrumentation.
The primary purpose of this prospective study is to determine when adolescent athletes with idiopathic scoliosis are able to return to sports participation after posterior spinal fusion surgery.
The primary purpose of this randomized trial is to compare the efficacy of an ultrasonic bone scalpel (or osteotome device) with standard of care surgical instruments during posterior spine fusion with instrumentation.
The proposed research aims to investigate how different ventilation strategies may affect cerebral tissue oxygenation in the pediatric population. It will contribute to the literature exploring the NIRS monitoring device which is becoming increasingly utilized in a variety of anesthetic and critical care settings. It may help to guide clinical practice regarding optimal ventilation strategies, and how ventilation may be altered to correct suboptimal cerebral tissue oxygenation. This prospective study will include 50 patients undergoing posterior spinal fusion that requires placement of an arterial cannulation. There will be no change in the anesthetic or perioperative care of these patients. Tissue and cerebral oxygenation will be monitored using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS).
