Doctors monitor brain oxygen as teen scoliosis patients are tilted during surgery
NCT ID NCT06910228
Summary
This study aims to understand how changing a patient's position during scoliosis surgery affects oxygen levels in the brain. Researchers will observe 50 adolescents having spinal fusion surgery, using a special sensor on the forehead to measure brain oxygen non-invasively. They will compare oxygen readings when patients are lying flat versus when the head of the bed is raised to 30 and 60 degrees.
