The anesthesia for selective posterior rhizotomy at lumbar and sacral regions on juvenile cerebral palsy patients / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

Objective To summarize the anesthesia techniques performed in the selective posterior rhizotomy(SPR) at lumbar and sacral regions（ L＆ R） on juvenile cerebral palsy(CP) patients. Method 144 CP patients below 10 years were successfully erformed SPR at L＆ R under combined intravenous and inhalation anesthesia (CIIA) in prone position with threshold values of each nerve root being measured by means of nerve root electric stimulus (NRES). Result All patients were performed SPR and NRES successfully although blood pressure and heart rate increased significantly while NRES. Conclusion CIIA is safe and effective for juvenile CP patients to be performed SPR at L＆ R.
