Propofol-remifentanil Versus Dexmedetomidine in Awake Craniotomy: an Intraoperative Neurophysiological Evaluation

CRANIO-UDINE

Awake craniotomy require a cooperative patient during resection neurosurgery phase. Anesthesiologist should guarantee analgesia, sedation, nausea and vomiting prevention, while maintaining normal vital parameters. Neurosurgeon could be help by Intraoperative electrocorticography to maximise lesion resection and avoiding neurologic sequelae. Propofol and remifentanyl have been largely used. Dexmedetomidine represents an alternative. However little is known about the role of dexmedetomidine on Intraoperative electrocorticography.
