Nice, but you should show how the needle is inserted into the bone by the surgeon tapping rather sharply on top of a metal plate to get it into the vertebra. I had a kyphoplasty done two days ago and under light sedation I was conscious enough to suddenly feel something striking my spine repeatedly, with some pain. I was quite alarmed and cried out, although I heard someone assure me I was asleep! Afterwards, I was too groggy to speak about it but wanted an explanation which no-one could provide; the operating doctor did not come see me after the procedure. Only when I went looking at videos of the procedure did I find only one that showed the fairly substantial shaft of the trocar with a flat metal plate on top and a surgeon tapping it with a hammer. That clip immediately answered my question as to what I had felt. I feel this should be more fully explained to patients, since under light sedation it's always possible that the patient will gain some awareness. Otherwise, this is a fine video.

You have to remember that that results and risks of the procedure are more relevant to what the doctor needs to say to the patient. Sure, he could tell you that he's going to be hammering a gian needle into you spine, but honestly, is that a conversation that's going to be useful for the patient? Maybe, but mostly it's going to turn away a lot of patients and cause others to ask a billion questions. My point is this, before agreeing to a procedure and you want to know what it entails, Google/YT are your friend. rightly or wrongly, doctors are not inclined to make the time to make life harder for themselves.

Please get general anesthesia for this type of procedures I don't understand why dr's are willing to do these procedures with a sedation/analgesia.

What insurance covers this procedure

@Halchal_America Жыл бұрын

@@katrinaevans2610 You would not pay more than max-out-of-pocket from your insurance. Generally, all the corporate insurnace have out-of-pocket maximum is $4K. So, you wont pay more than that. In addition, you can also get back some $ during your tax return.

Kaiser does. I read that its normally covered by regular insurance, i.e. Blue Cross.

Thanks for explaining it. I hope to be put under or I will not do it. I’ve had too many shots in my back and I have nightmares thinking about the pain. I go in Monday for a consultation.
