Összefoglaló. A thoracoabdominalis aortakirekesztés okozta gerincvelő ischemia súlyos neurológiai következményeit számos klinikai és kísérleti tanulmány bizonyítja. E nehezen kiszámítható, súlyos szövődmény megelőzésének érdekében régi törekvés megfelelő intra- és posztoperatív monitorizálás kifejlesztése, ami előre jelzi a gerincvelő-funkció romlását, illetve a kialakuló celluláris károsodást. A legelterjedtebb, a klinikai gyakorlatban széles körben alkalmazott megoldás a gerincvelői kiváltott motoros potenciál (MEP) folyamatos ellenőrzése. Ritkábban alkalmazott – bár ígéretes – eljárás a biokémiai változások nyomon követése, ami a sejtszintű károsodás markereit használja fel az ischemia okozta változások felismerésére. Korábbi dolgozatunkban kutyákon végzett kísérleteink azon eredményeit ismertettük, amelyekben a 60 perces thoracoabdominalis aortakirekesztés okozta neurológiai változások és a perfúzió adatainak összefüggéseit tárgyaltuk. Jelen tanulmányunkban a gerincvelői motoros (MEP) és szenzoros (SEP) kiváltott potenciálok változásait vizsgáljuk a neurológiai végállapot vonatkozásában. Megállapítottuk, hogy SEP változásai a neurológiai károsodás mértékével értékelhető összefüggést nem mutatnak. A MEP-amplitúdó és -latencia értékei biztonsággal jelzik a fenyegető gerincvelő ischemiát. A neurológiai deficit mélységét (Tarlov 2,1,0) a MEP-értékek változásai numerikusan nem értékelhetően követik. Summary. Severe neurological complications of the thoracoabdominal aortic clamping were published in numerous clinical and experimental studies. These hardly predictable, devastating consequences demanded to develop a monitoring system which might detect impending level of spinal cord ischemia in time – in order to introduce or enhance protective procedures and prevent permanent neurological deficit. The most widely used monitoring in clinical practice is the continuous surveillance of the motor evoked potentials (MEP) during and after thoracoabdominal aortic clamping. Much less used, but promising opportunity is to control the metabolic changes and cellular integrity utilizing specific markers like liquor lactate and neuron specific enolase (NSE) etc. In our earlier study we published data of our canine experiment related to coherencies between neurological outcome and specific perfusion of the spinal cord during and after one hour thoracoabdominal aortic clamping. In the present paper we investigate the behavior of motor evoked (MEP) and sensory evoked (SEP) potentials related to neurological changes. We conclude the behavior of SEP values hardly correlate with the neurologic outcome, meanwhile decrease of MEP amplitude provides reliable signal for developing spinal cord ischemia. We could not confirm a numeric correlation of these data and the level of the final neurologic outcome.

Background Monitoring of myogenic motor evoked potentials to transcranial stimulation (tcMEPs) is clinically used to assess motor pathway function during aortic and spinal procedures that carry a risk of spinal cord ischemia (SCI). Although tcMEPs presumably detect SCI before irreversible neuronal deficit occurs, and prolonged reduction of tcMEP signals is thought to be associated with impending spinal cord damage, experimental evidence to support this concept has not been provided. In this study, histopathologic and neurologic outcome was examined in a porcine model of SCI after different durations of intraoperative loss of tcMEP signals. Methods In 15 ketamine-sufentanil-anesthetized pigs (weight, 35-45 kg) the spinal cord feeding lumbar arteries were exposed. tcMEP were recorded from the upper and lower limbs. Under normothermic conditions, animals were randomly allocated to undergo short-term tcMEP reduction (group A, < 10 min, n = 5) or prolonged tcMEP reduction (group B, 60 min, n = 10), resulting from temporary or permanent clamping of lumbar segmental arteries. Neurologic function was evaluated every 24 h, and infarction volume and the number of eosinophilic neurons and viable motoneurons in the lumbosacral spinal cord was evaluated 72 h after induction of SCI. Results In all animals except one, segmental artery clamping reduced tcMEP to below 25% of baseline. All but one animal in group A had reduced tcMEP for less than 10 min and had normal motor function and no infarction at 72 h after the initial tcMEP reduction. Seven animals in group B (70%) had reduced tcMEP signals for more than 60 min and were paraplegic with massive spinal cord infarction at 72 h. Two animals (one in both groups) had tcMEP loss for 40 min, with moderate infarction and normal function. In general, histopathologic damage and neurologic dysfunction did not occur when tcMEP amplitude recovered within 10 and 40 min after the initial decline, respectively. Conclusion Prolonged reduction of intraoperative tcMEP amplitude is predictive for postoperative neurologic dysfunction, while recovery of the tcMEP signal within 10 min after the initial decline corresponds with normal histopathology and motor function in this experimental model. This finding confirms that intraoperative tcMEPs have a good prognostic value for neurologic outcome during procedures in which the spinal cord is at risk for ischemia.

In the available literature, we did not find any works devoted to the influence of cervical spinal cord ischemia on gastrointestinal tract function. Since ischemia of the spinal cord structures, hypothalamus and vegetative centers plays the leading role in the occurrence of functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract, we carried out experimental studies on 11 purebred puppies.
