Beskrivelse
Inclusion Criteria:
- The subjects included in the study are patients undergoing an anterior cervical spine procedure.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients with greater than ASA grade II will be excluded. Patients with non-degenerative conditions, such as trauma, tumors, infection, radiation, and diabetes will be excluded. Patients with posterior procedures will be excluded. Patients with clinical pre-operative dysphagia, indicated by a score of 3 or higher on the EAT-10 questionnaire,19 will also be excluded. Patients who are pregnant will be excluded from this study.

Aktiv komparator: Dexamethasone
Subject will receive doses of intravenous dexamethasone, a corticosteroid.
The first dose will be given before the incision and the subsequent doses will be given 8 and 16 hours after the first dose.
Dexamethasone doses will be 0.3 mg/kg for the first dose and 0.15 mg/kg for each subsequent dose.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse |
Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
Intravenous Corticosteroids Effect on Post-operative Dysphagia
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
The severity of dysphagia will be evaluated by dysphagia questionnaires and a two week postoperative swallow evaluation by a licensed swallowing expert.
If recommended by the swallow evaluation, a videofluoroscopic swallow study (VFSS) will be performed to further evaluate the severity of dysphagia.
|
12 months
|
|
The Correlation Between Radiographic Data and the Extent of Dysphagia in Patients.
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
Soft-tissue swelling will be measured by the anterior cervical soft-tissue shadow width on lateral cervical radiographs.
The extent of dysphagia will be evaluated by the dysphagia questionnaires, the swallow evaluation, and the VFSS, if necessary.

Tidsramme |
|---|---|---|
|
The Efficacy of Intravenous Steroids on Aspiration Rates of Patients Undergoing Anterior Cervical Spine Surgery.
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
Aspiration rates will be evaluated by the percentage of patients in each group with post-operative aspiration.
|
12 months
|
|
Examine the Impact of Dexamethasone on the Development of Postoperative Nausea.
Tidsramme: Immediate post-operatively
|
This will be quantified by the visual analogue scale (VAS) questionnaire for nausea and measuring the number of vomiting episodes following surgery.
|
Immediate post-operatively
|
|
Examine the Impact of Dexamethasone on Radicular Pain.
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
This will be quantified by the NDI questionnaire and VAS questionnaire for neck pain and arm pain.
|
12 months
|
|
Examine Whether Intravenous Steroids Affect the Outcomes of Surgery, for Example, Fusion Rates.
Tidsramme: 12 months
|
The outcomes of surgery will be examined through the 1 year post-operative appointment.
