Low Back Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
Lumbar Interbody Fusion Using The Telamon® Peek™ Versus The Telamon® Hydrosorb™ Fusion Device - A Prospective, Randomized Controlled Trial To Assess Surgical And Clinical Outcomes

Health authority | |
Study type | Interventional |
Lumbar spinal fusion is commonly performed as a "last resort" in patients with chronic low back pain caused by degenerative changes and instability of the spine. The aim of this study is to compare two fusion devices, which are used in spinal surgery in order to promote the fusion of two lumbar vertebrae.

Eligibility |
Inclusion Criteria: - Both genders, age between 18 and 70 years - Chronic low back pain (> 3 months) with or without leg pain but no signs of motor loss - Based on clinical history, physical examination, and radiographic signs, pain interpreted as emanating from L4-L5 or L5-S1 - Symptoms refractory to conservative treatment for at least 3 months - Evidence of degenerative changes at L4-L5 or L5-S1 (spondylosis) on plain radiographs and/or CT scan, and/or MRI. The pathology should be predominant on one level. - Single-level Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion surgery (PLIF) is indicated by the spine surgeon - Additional posterior fixation is mandatory - Use of autograft of the iliac crest is possible - Ability to provide informed consent Exclusion Criteria: - Previous lumbar spinal fusion - All other previous spinal surgery except for successful removal of a herniated disc more than 2 years before entering the study - Symptomatic degenerative disc disorder at more than one lumbar level - Pregnancy or intention to become pregnant during the two year study - Ongoing psychiatric illness - Evidence of alcohol and/or drug abuse - Inability to complete the questionnaires - Inability to walk independently - Other indications than degenerative spinal disorders including a metabolic bone disease, osteoporosis, infection, old fracture, inflammatory process, or neoplasm - Obvious painful and disabling arthritic hip joints |
