Summary
transcranial motor evoked potentials (TcMEP) were proved to be useful during complicated
spinal surgeries to prevent iatrogenic complications. The effect of anesthetic agents was
comprehensively discussed in literature. The Investigators studied a new balanced anesthetic
protocol using propofol and sevoflurane in addition to continuous fentanyl infusion in which
they compared values and ratios of amplitudes and latencies of TcMEP waves at different time
point.
