Abstract | Background: There is debate on the impact of inhalational esthetic agents on transcranial motor evoked potentials (TcMEPs) during intraoperative neuromonitoring. Current guidelines advise their avoidance, which contrasts with common clinical practice. Methods: This retrospective cohort study of 150 consecutive cervical spine surgeries at a single institution compared stimulation voltages and TcMEP amplitudes in patients who did and did not receive sevoflurane as part of a balanced anesthetic technique. Patients were divided into 3 groups stratified by the presence or absence of increased signal intensity within the cervical spinal cord on T2-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (indicative or myelopathy/spinal cord injury [SCI]) and sevoflurane use. Results: Patients with no magnetic resonance imaging evidence of myelopathy/SCI that received sevoflurane (n=80) had the lowest stimulation voltages and largest TcMEP amplitude responses in the lower extremities compared with those with no magnetic resonance imaging evidence of myelopathy/SCI (n=30). In patients with evidence of myelopathy/SCI who did not receive sevoflurane (n=19), lower extremity TcMEP amplitudes were similar to patients with a myelopathy/SCI that received sevoflurane. Six of these 19 patients had initial low-dose sevoflurane discontinued because of concerns of low/absent baseline TcMEP amplitudes. Conclusions: Balanced anesthesia with 0.5 MAC sevoflurane in patients with and without radiological evidence of myelopathy/SCI allows reliable TcMEP monitoring. However, in communication with surgical and neuromonitoring teams, it may be advisable in a subset of patients to avoid or discontinue sevoflurane in favor of a propofol/opioid-based anesthetic to ensure adequate and reproducible TcMEPs. |
