Aim: To examine the effects of different retractor techniques for anterior cervical discectomy on cerebral oxygen saturation.
Material And Methods: In this study, a prospective comparative design was employed to examine the effects of different retractor techniques on a cohort of 48 adult patients with ASA I-II classification who underwent anterior cervical discectomy under general anesthesia. The study was conducted under assessor-blinded conditions, and the patients were divided equally into two groups: the self-retaining retractor group and the hand-held retractor group.
