Most anesthesia practices (77.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 67.7\u201393.4) do not have patients come for a preoperative visit prior to the day of surgery. Intravenous induction was the preferred method (74.2%; 95% CI 61.3\u201389.9), with the majority utilizing two peripheral IVs (93.5%; 95% CI 90.3\u2013100) and an arterial line (100%; 95% CI 88.8\u2013100). Paralytic administration for intubation and\/or exposure was divided (51.6% rocuronium\/vecuronium, 45.2% no paralytic, and 3.2% succinylcholine) amongst respondents. While tranexamic acid was consistently utilized for reducing blood loss, dosing regimens varied. When faced with neuromonitoring signal issues, 67.7% employ a formal protocol. Most anesthesiologists (93.5%; 95% CI 78.6\u201399.2) extubate immediately postoperatively with patients admitted to an inpatient floor bed (77.4%; 95% CI 67.7\u201393.3).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Most anesthesiologists (87.1%; 95% CI 80.6\u201399.9) report the use of some form of an anesthesia\u2010based protocol for AIS fusions, but our survey results show there is considerable variation in all aspects of perioperative care. Areas of agreement on management comprise the typical vascular access required, utilization of tranexamic acid, immediate extubation, and disposition to a floor bed. By recognizing the diversity of anesthetic care, we can develop areas of research and improve the perioperative management of AIS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/pan.14895","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,4,5]],"date-time":"2024-04-05T13:24:38Z","timestamp":1712323478000},"page":"645-653","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["A
