Brief summary
In anterior cervical disc surgery, head and neck extansion position and, surgical retraction used while reaching the anterior surface of the cervical vertebra can be affect the carotid blood flow and constituting a risk for cerebral ischaemia. In this study, we planned to investigate the relationship between head position and retraction, cerebral oxygenation and postoperative cognitive functions in patients undergoing anterior cervical disc surgery.
Interventions
The Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) is the method used for monitorize the risk of the development of cerebral ischaemia while providing information about brain tissue oxygenation.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) | Intraoperative | Evaluate the effect of head position and surgical retraction on brain oxygenization with NIRS. Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is a brain imaging method that measures light absorbance to calculate oxy-hemoglobin (oxy-HB) and deoxy-hemoglobin (deoxy-HB), which provides an indirect measure of brain activity, particularly in the frontal cortex. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Mini-Mental State Examination | 2 hours postoperative | Evaluate the effect of head position and surgical retraction on cognitive functions with using mini-mental state examination . A Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) is a set of 30 questions that commonly use to check for cognitive impairment (problems with thinking, communication, understanding and memory) |
