Although spinal surgery carries a risk of neurological complicatiorı of less than 1 percent, the resulting disabili-ty is so devastating that it necessitates monitoring to avoid permanent injury. İn spinal surgery, peroperative blood loss is significant during both exposure and decortication of bone. Hypotensive anesthesia is recommended to re-duce blood loss. İn this study, the effect of both TIVA and INDUCED HYPOTENSION techniques on total blood loss and blood loss during wake-up test were determinated.
