Estimation of the anaesthetics on the somatosensory potentials recorded during the scoliosis correction with CD and CD Hopf methods

The aim of study was estimation of the anaesthetics influence on the morphology of somatosensory potentials (SEPs) recorded oververtebrally at the cervical level when correction of scoliosis with CD and CD Hopf methods were performed. Material and methods: Amplitudes and latencies of the averaged SEPs recorded during the correction of scoliosis in 16 subjects with CD and in 11 subjects treated with CD Hopf were analyzed. Subjects were inhalatory anaesthetized with O2 and N2O mixture with the intravenal administration of Scoline, Pavulon, Fenthanyl and barbiturates in different combinations. Results: In SEPs reco…
