✦ Synopsis

Results

Objectives: Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) used in anterior cervical spinal fusion procedures causes an inflammatory response resulting in upper airway obstruction between postoperative days 4-7. The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence and severity of airway complications associated with use of BMP, the associated clinical outcomes, morbidities and mortalities following its use, and to create a clinical awareness of patients with acute airway obstruction associated with the use of BMP in cervical spinal fusion.
