Rationale for
Spinal Cord Protection
-
1. Distal aortic pressure
2. Moderate hypothermia
3. CSF pressure
Spinal Cord Protection

Neurologic Deficit Adjunct Era
-
Despite increased aortic cross-clamp times, adjunct has reduced overall risk of neurologic deficit
Adjunct use has blunted effect of aortic cross-clamp time
Adjunct may allow surgeon to operate without pressure of time

DAP & CSFD can be performed with acceptable
morbidity and mortality significantly reducing the
incidence of neurological deficits during repair of

Conclusion
Subclinical pre-existing renal disease is
prevalent in TAAA patients
GFR versus serum creatinine
More sensitive index of renal function
Better predictor of mortality

444 SSEP in DTA/TAA repair
Data collected prospectively &
reviewed retrospectively
68 years (20 - 87 years)
158 (36%) 286 (64%)
Methods
-
Right & left PTN alternatively stimulated at the ankle to get a sustained waveform
SSEP Monitoring
Rate = 4.7 Hz
Stimulus Duration = 0.05 – 0.7 sec
Intensity = 0.3 Amp
