NCT07204288
This study is a multi-center, observational, prospective and retrospective data collection study
NCT06528288
The purpose of this study is to determine if the method for injecting local anesthesia affects patients' pain and opioid usage after surgery. The investigators will compare subcutaneous anesthesia, injections of anesthesia under the skin, to a method called erector spinae plane block (ESPB). An ESPB injection involves placing local anesthesia along the muscles and bones in the back, using a special type of x-ray called fluoroscopy for guidance. The Investigators will use patient reported outcomes (PROs) and track subjects' opioid usage to find out if there is a difference between ESPB and subcutaneous anesthesia. The investigators hypothesize that patients who get ESPB injections will use less opioids and report less pain after lumbar fusion surgery compared to patients who receive subcutaneous anesthesia injections.
NCT06719349
The aim of the study was to introduce a single-segment lumbar spine decompression and fusion with intervertebral implants through modified by the authors lateral lumbar approach. Functional, surgical and radiographic outcomes was evaluated.
NCT03439228
The use of a lumbar brace following single-level lumbar fusion for degenerative spondylosis (non-traumatic) is variable between surgeons. Some surgeons prefer to prescribe a brace and others do not. There is a lack of guidelines and evidence to support either treatment option. The purpose of this study is to assess feasibility and collect preliminary data to conduct a larger, definitive trial to provide evidence as to whether prescribing a brace or not results in better or equal outcomes. Imaging by CT scan, one year after surgery, will be used to analyze bone fusion (healing), and functional and pain scores from patients during their recovery will be compared to identify differences between patients who wore a brace and those who did not.
NCT04176562
This study is a prospective, multi-center, open label registry designed to collect real-world data on performance and safety data on RTI's spine products.
NCT02485574
The purpose of this study is to evaluation for the pattern of bone bridging of patients who undergo transforaminal lumbar interbody arthrodesis, the investigators hypothesize that auto local bone mixed with β-calcium phosphate + hydroxyapatite (OSTEON 2, Genoss) is not inferior to auto local bone only. In addition, the investigators will analyze anterior new bone bridging pattern between anterior bridging cage newly developed and grafted bone in anterior disc space.
NCT03104816
Simple explanation and rationale: Recovery after spine surgery is usually accompanied by severe pain which has traditionally been managed with opioids. It is common practice to supplement opioid treatment with different classes of analgesics which work through alternative pain pathways and receptors in order to achieve an additive or synergistic effect while reducing the amount of opioids necessary for pain control. Acetaminophen can be a beneficial supplemental analgesic to opioids for postoperative pain relief. Intervention: Patients will be randomized to either the treatment with IV acetaminophen (A), PO acetaminophen (B), or hydromorphone control group (C). Objective/Purpose: Primary objective is to determine the impact of administering a supplemental non-opioid analgesic drug such as IV or PO acetaminophen on total opioid dose administered over the postoperative period. Secondary objectives include investigating the impact of IV/PO acetaminophen on the level of postoperative pain, patient satisfaction, and side effects secondary to opioids such as nausea, vomiting, pruritus, sedation, respiratory depression, ileus, and urinary retention, and PACU (postoperative care unit) discharge time. Study population: 126 patients will be enrolled in the study (42 for group A, 42 for group B, and 42 for control group C). Follow-up and Endpoints / Outcomes: Postoperative assessments will be done at 0, 30, and 60 minutes, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours after surgery. Patients will be evaluated for pain (using a numeric rating scale), total opioid consumption, and for opioid side effects including drowsiness (using the Ramsey sedation scale and the Aldrete score at the time of arrival to and discharge from recovery room), respiratory depression, nausea, vomiting, and pruritus. Patient satisfaction will also be assessed using a numeric rating scale.
NCT01750840
The purpose of this clinical registry is to capture data on an ongoing basis from a population of patients who will use Biomet's BHS, OrthoPak and SpinalPak devices.
