Study Summary
When patients have spinal surgery, electrodes are placed on the body to measure motor evoked potentials (MEP) and somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP). Many hospitals only use IV anesthesia because they feel that measuring MEP and SSEP is easier using IV anesthesia. At this hospital the investigators typically use inhaled anesthesia and are able to successfully measure MEP and SSEP. This is a study to find out if one method of anesthesia is better than the other for measuring MEP and SSEP.
Primary Outcome
Compare the data obtained from neuromonitoring including the amplitude required to elicit the MEP from patients receiving general anesthesia with an inhalational anesthetic agent to those receiving total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA).
Interventions
- DRUG propofol
- DRUG Desflurane
