Notes

  • Background: Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is an operation method that decreases the degree of spasticity with long-lasting beneficial effects for children with spastic diplegia. Children undergoing SDR are postoperatively in severe pain, a pain related to both the extensive surgical exposure with multilevel laminectomy and the nerve root manipulation. Various pain management strategies for children undergoing SDR have been published. The postoperative pain treatment is a vital part of the management. The aim of this study was to estimate the number of centers performing SDR, the frequency of SDR surgery and to investigate pain management of the different centers. Methods: A questionnaire comprising 7 questions was sent by mail and/or e-mail to a total of 59 potential centers performing SDR, centers that have published material concerning SDR or centers that have been recommended. Forty-seven (80%) centers responded to the questionnaire; 11 of them do not presently perform SDR surgery, and the remaining 36 centers constitute the material of the present study. Results: 23 of the 36 centers use Peacock's operation technique and 8 centers use Park's technique. Continuous intravenous infusion of opioids for postoperative pain treatment is used by 17 (47%) of the centers. Seven (19%) centers use the epidural (ED) approach for treating postoperative pain and 6 (17%) centers use intrathecal (IT) pain treatment. The duration of intravenous ED or IT pain relief ranged from 24 h up to 7 days. To evaluate pain relief, 25 (70%) centers used some form of pain scale. Conclusion: The most common operation techniques in use today are described by Peacock or by Park, with an estimated number of procedures of more than 487/year in 36 centers. The majority of the centers seem to have a satisfactory pain management strategy. These centers administer continuous infusions of opioids, with an intravenous, ED or IT approach, and incorporate the use of a pain assessment tool to evaluate pain relief. Copyright (c) 2007 S.
