Spinal Stenosis clinical trials at UCSF

1 research study open to eligible people

Spinal stenosis is a condition where the spaces in the spine narrow. UCSF is studying how ketamine affects motor signals during spine surgery. These studies help us understand better ways to monitor and treat spinal problems.

Showing trials for

  • Ketamine on Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potentials

    open to eligible people ages 18-100

    The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of ketamine on intraoperative motor evoked potentials in adult patients undergoing thoracolumbar spinal fusions. Participants will undergo a standard anesthetic. In addition to the standard anesthetic, the patients will be administered increasing doses of ketamine with motor-evoked potentials being measured at each dose, to assess any impacts.
