Managing Pain after Spinal Fusion: Medications and Techniques

Abstract

Tatsuya Sato*

Prior to the surgery, the patient undergoes a thorough evaluation, including medical history assessment, physical examination, and diagnostic tests such as X-rays, MRI scans, or CT scans. These help the surgeon determine the precise location and extent of the spinal problem. Once in the operating room, the patient is administered general anesthesia to ensure comfort and unconsciousness throughout the procedure. Sometimes, local anesthesia with sedation may be used instead.
