Objective To analyze the dual-channel with single channel recorded somatosensory evoked potentials(SSEPs)monitoring in the thoracic vertebral disease that underwent surgical fixation surgery waveform differentiation and evaluate the value of dual-channel SSEPs applied in thoracic surgery diseases.Methods The study included 135 patients who underwent surgery for thoracic vertebra disease in Xi'an Honghui hospital from November 2019 to November 2023.Of them,66 underwent conventional single-channel SSEPs monitoring and 69 underwent dual-channel SSEPs monitoring.By observing the waveform differentiation of single-channel SSEPs and dual-channel SSEPs,Chi-square test and Fisher exact test were used to analyze the influences of age and etiological classification on the waveform differentiation and monitoring success rate of SSEPs.The success rate of intraoperative monitoring and the incidence of postoperative adverse events in alarm cases were compared between the two groups.Results Univariate analysis showed that age group and etiological classification of thoracic vertebral diseases affected the success rate of intraoperative SSEPs monitoring.Among the etiological classification,the SSEPs waveform differentiation in fracture group was the least ideal.Intraoperative monitoring results showed that the success rate of single-channel SSEPs monitoring was 80.30％,while the success rate of dual-channel SSEPS monitoring was 98.55％(P＜0.05).In the intraoperative alarm cases,the incidence of postoperative adverse events monitored by single-channel SSEPs was 66.67％;the incidence of adverse events after dual-channel SSEPs monitoring was 33.33％.Conclusion The age of patients and etiological type of thoracic spine diseases affect the success rate of intraoperative SSEPs monitoring.Dual-channel SSEPs monitoring can effectively and accurately evaluate the function of patients with posterior spinal cord conduction pathway.Using dual-channel SSEPs monitoring can significantly improve the success rate of monitoring and reduce the occurrence of postoperative adverse events in patients with thoracic vertebra disease.
