Patients are sedated and comfortable for the duration of all of our spine procedures. Following sedation by IV, local anesthetic is given at the surgical site while IV medications are used to ensure the patient is comfortable. During the spinal procedure, patients are able to communicate with the surgical team and relate to the team when their pain has been alleviated and when impulses are moving the entire length of the nerve.
