Condition(s) targeted: Patients Undergoing Spine Surgery
Intervention: intermediate-acting digital nerve block (Other)
Phase: N/A
Status: Completed
Sponsored by: University of California, San Francisco Official(s) and/or principal investigator(s):
Ronald D Miller, MD, MS, Principal Investigator, Affiliation: University of California, San Francisco
Summary
The investigators are proposing to continue investigation to improve the accuracy of the
SpHb (continuous hemoglobin monitoring device) by administering an intermediate acting
digital nerve block in the finger connected to the SpHb, specifically bupivacaine 0. 25% in
patients undergoing spine surgery. Bupivacaine is FDA approved and in routine use.
Clinical Details
Official title: The Influence of a Bupivacaine Digital Nerve Block With the New Continuous Sensor (Rev G) on the Accuracy of SpHb Monitoring.
Study design: Allocation: Randomized, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Primary outcome: SpHb (continuous hemoglobin monitor reading) minus tHb (clinical laboratory determined hemoglobin value).
Detailed description:
Patients undergoing spine surgery will be randomized to receive (or not) the bupivacaine
digital block on the finger attached to the new limited release version of the hemoglobin
sensor, RevG. The SpHb reading will be compared to a blood hemoglobin level analyzed in
the UCSF Clinical Laboratories.
