Eligibility criteria

Inclusion

Patients 10-21 years of age undergoing posterior spinal fusion, requiring neurophysiologic monitoring and an arterial cannula

Exclusion

Patients in whom an arterial cannula is not indicated for the surgical procedure
Patients with comorbid conditions that may impact cerebral blood flow, cerebral perfusion or place them at risk for cerebral hypoperfusion
Patients in whom an invasive arterial cannula cannot be placed

What this trial measures

  • Change in cerebral oxygenation at 30 degrees5-10 minutes after start of study

    Moving the head of the bed to 30 degrees and comparing cerebral oxygen levels to levels when patient was lying flat.

  • Change in cerebral oxygenation at 60 degrees10-15 minutes after start of study

    Moving the head of the bed to 60 degrees and comparing cerebral oxygen levels to levels when patient was lying flat.
