Detaljeret beskrivelse

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to examine the effect of local intravenous steroids following anterior cervical spine surgery on the development of dysphagia in patients. This study aims to investigate if there is a difference in the efficacy of intravenous steroids compared to a placebo of physiological saline for patients undergoing anterior cervical spine surgery. Furthermore, this study aims to investigate the correlation between radiographic measurements of soft tissue swelling and the severity of dysphagia for patients. Finally, this study aims to examine the impact of intravenous steroids on nausea and radicular pain in patients. Secondary outcome measures will include patient focused outcomes questionnaires, pain medication requirements, and fusion rates.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
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.
Medicin: Dexamethasone
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.
Placebo komparator: Saline
Subject will receive doses of intravenous physiological saline solution.
Andet: Saline
The first dose will be given before the incision and the subsequent doses will be given 8 and 16 hours after the first dose.

Hvad måler undersøgelsen?

Primære resultatmål

Resultatmål
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.
12 months

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.
