Filter by:Single-shot erector spinae plane (ESP) blocks (ESPB) are emerging as an intervention to improve pain and minimize opioid consumption after lumbar spine surgery. Although promising, there is minimal evidence to support routine use, and widespread clinical adoption may be limited to centers with advanced regional anesthesia resources and expertise. Continuous ESP catheter techniques may solve these problems but are associated with challenges of their own. This trial will investigate the role of adding surgeon-placed, continuous ESP catheters to single-shot ESPBs for patients undergoing multilevel spine surgery. It will assess whether adding ESP catheters with ropivacaine infusion for 48 hours after surgery offers opioid-minimizing analgesia and improves patient quality of recovery, compared to ESP catheters with saline/placebo infusion for 48 hours.
The objective of this study is to examine the efficacy and side effect of varying dose of pregabalin for the treatment of postoperative pain after spinal surgery.
Purpose of the study: To evaluate whether the SSB is safe, useful, beneficial and effective in drilling, cutting and removal of bone tissue in neurosurgical and spine procedures.
Risk factors for cardiac arrest during spine surgery have been well defined, including lumbar fusion, age over 65 years, obesity, cardiovascular disease, ethnicity and ASA status. Bradycardia and asystole have been described under general anaesthesia in combined surgical cohorts: Proposed mechanisms include unopposed parasympathetic activation, enhanced vasovagal response to decreased venous return, and psychiatric stressors. The investigators prospectively will review patients candidates for spine surgery to explore potential incidence, contributory factors and outcomes to unexpected transient intraoperative haemodynamic instability, arrhythmia, and cardiac arrest during spine surgery as these data are needed to aid risk stratification and improve decision making for spine care teams.
To evaluate the analgesic effect of intraoperative continuous lidocaine infusion (1.5 mg/kg/h (ideal body weight)) in combination of analgesia nociception index and depth of anesthesia monitors guided anesthetics adjustment on enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in patients undergoing elective lumbar spine surgery (≥2 sessions).
The CADISS® System, Chemically Assisted mechanical DISSection, is intended for the selective detachment of pathological tissue layers and/or fibrotic tissues in various surgical procedures without using cutting instruments. It is based on the property of the drug mesna (Sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate) to cleave the disulfide bonds responsible for the adherence of pathological tissues and for the strength of fibrosis. Revision spine surgery is more difficult than primary surgery because of the development of fibrosis and scar tissues since the first operation. Fibrosis may develop in the spinal canal and will adhere strongly to the dura mater and to the nerve roots. This study is a prospective, multi-sites, open label, single cohort clinical trial evaluating the use of CADISS medical devices to facilitate dissection of epidural fibrosis in patients who undergo a revision in spine surgery after at least one year.
Prospective longitudinal multicentre observational study carried out on a population of patients undergoing minimally invasive spine surgery and divided into two parallel cohorts according to the presence or absence of a Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) programme. The patient will be assessed during 4 visits: At inclusion before surgery, at D0 (day of surgery), at D1 (postoperative visit) and at M1 (follow-up visit).
This is a randomized study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of tranexamic acid in patients undergoing multilevel spine surgery. 75 patients undergoing multi-level spine surgery will be enrolled at Mount Sinai West. Study participation will last from the time of pre-operative evaluation to the time of discharge from hospital. Specifically, the study team will compare tranexamic acid given only intravenously vs. given both topically and intravenously vs. given only intravenously but at a higher dosage. The study team hypothesizes that patient who received combined topical and intravenous TXA (low dose) have similar or decreased overall blood loss postoperatively compared to patient who received high or low dose intravenous TXA alone.
Anesthesia for neurosurgery requires balancing deep and effective anesthesia as well as postoperative analgesia versus the risks of delayed recovery and postoperative respiratory depression. This randomized placebo-controlled, double-blind study was designed to evaluate the effect of magnesium sulfate on the total anesthetic and analgesic consumption using the clinical parameters in addition to the effect on IONM reading.
Effective non-opioid analgesics are of particular interest in ambulatory surgery, as providers may be able to reduce pain while avoiding perioperative opioids that can delay same day discharge. The value of maintaining an efficient flow of patients from the perioperative area to discharge is an important metric for same day surgery centers, and an improvement in efficiency with IV acetaminophen could potentially offset the increased cost of the medication while providing a more pleasant surgical experience for patients. The goal of this study is to compare the efficacy of intraoperative IV administration vs. preoperative oral administration of acetaminophen on postoperative opioid utilization, patient-reported pain scores, opioid-related adverse effects, and time to recovery and discharge from the post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) after ambulatory lumbar discectomy.
