NCT06848595

Brief Summary

This study is to evaluate the effects of dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulfate on cerebral oxygen saturation in patients undergoing spine surgeries as adjuvant to general anesthesia guided by cerebral oximetry. The main aims to are Incidence of cerebral desaturation events and duration of cerebral desaturation events.
