Cervical epidural block could cause spinal cord injury if the epidural needle is over-inserted and punctures the spinal cord. Investigators retrospectively evaluated the imaging data of 100 patients (50 men and 50 women) who underwent both cervical computed tomography (CT) and cervical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at our hospital. Investigators measured the diameters of the spinal canal and spinal cord from the 3rd cervical vertebra to the 1st thoracic vertebra (T1) at each level by using the patients' cervical CT and MR images. The spinal cord and spinal canal diameters were measured in the transverse plane of cervical MR and CT images, respectively.

Nausea and vomiting after surgery are one of the complications that occur after general anesthesia, and the frequency is reported to range from 10% to 80% in the high-risk group. Several studies have introduced drugs and methods to prevent nausea and vomiting after surgery. Among them, midazolam administered before surgery is known to have anti-anxiolytic and sedative effects on the prevention of nausea and vomiting after surgery. It has also been reported to increase its effectiveness when administered with other antiemetic agents.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of administration of combination with midazolam and different antiemetic agents on the prevention of postoperative nausea and vomiting in high-risk patients.
