Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the effects of different levels of neuromuscular blockade(NMB)on transcranial electric motor-evoked potentials(TCeMEPs)during idiopathic scoliosis.Methods Thirty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 11-23 yr,weighing 31-62 kg,scheduled for elective idiopathic scoliosis under general anesthesia,were enrolled in the study.NMB was monitored with train of four(TOF)-Watch SX.The levels of partial NMB were classified into 5 states according to TOF ratio(TOFR)and TOF counts:1 or 2 TOF counts(TOF1),3 TOF counts and TOFR≤15%(TOF2),TOFR 16%-25%(TOF3),TOFR 26%-50%(TOF4),TOFR 51%-75%(TOF5) and TOFR>75%(no NMB).Each state was maintained for 10 min.Failure and false-positive findings in TCeMEP monitoring,development of unexpected body movement and satisfaction with NMB were recorded.Results Compared with no NMB,the failure and false-positive rates of TCeMEP monitoring were significantly increased,the incidence of unexpected body movement was decreased,and the rate of satisfactory NMB was increased at TOF1,TOF2 and TOF3(P<0.05),no significant change was found in failure or false-positive rates of TCeMEP monitoring at TOF4 and TOF5(P>0.05),and the incidence of unexpected body movement was decreased and the rate of satisfactory NMB was increased at TOF4,the rate of satisfactory NMB was increased at TOF5(P<0.05),and no significant change was found in the incidence of unexpected body movement at TOF5(P>0.05).Compared with those at TOF4,no significant change was found in the failure or false-positive rates of TCeMEP monitoring(P>0.05),the incidence of unexpected body movement was significantly increased,and the rate of satisfactory NMB was decreased at TOF5(P<0.05).Conclusion Maintaining TOFR at 26%-50% the partial NMB during surgery does not affect TCeMEP monitoring during idiopathic scoliosis and meets the intra-operative NMB requirements simultaneously,and it is the optimum NMB for this type of surgery.
