Somatosensory Evoked Potential (SSEP) Monitoring for Detection of Intraoperative Positional Neuropraxia

NCT03422107 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 100

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

PNI (Peripheral Nerve Injury) occurs in 5-15% of patients in cardiac surgery. So far, the mechanism of injury has never been researched. In this study, we will compare minimally invasive cardiac surgery with conventional cardiac surgery using a novel portable SSEP device to pinpoint the mechanism and timing of PNI during cardiac surgery.
