Filter by:The object of this study is to assess the long-term safety and efficacy of cervical disc replacement with the ProDisc-C vivo Cervical Disc in a prospective, randomized, multi-center trial with 7 years of follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate clinical and patient-reported outcomes at 10 years following surgery for a cohort of Mobi-C subjects treated on the IDE/Post Approval studies
Background: Patients suffering residual disability after anterior decompression and fusion (ACDF) surgery for cervical disc disease may be prescribed physical activity (PPA) or neck-specific exercises (NSE). Currently, we lack data for the success of either approach. There is also a knowledge-gap concerning the use of internet-based care for chronic neck pain, inclusive of cervical disc disease. The scarcity of these data, and the high proportion of patients with various degrees of incapacity following ACDF, warrants increased efforts to investigate and improve cost-effective rehabilitation. Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of a structured, internet-based NSE program, versus PPA following ACDF surgery. Methods: This is a prospective, randomised, experimental, longitudinal multicentre study, that includes 140 patients with residual disability (≥30% on the Neck Disability Index; NDI) following ACDF for radiculopathy due to cervical disc disease. Patient recruitment occurs following attendance at routine clinical appointments, scheduled for 3-months post-surgery. Patients are then randomised to one of two groups (70 patients/group), scheduled for a 3-month treatment of either internet-based NSE or PPA. Questionnaires on background data, pain and discomfort, physical and mental capacity, satisfaction with care, and health and workplace factors are completed, with physical measurements of neck-related function performed by independent test leaders blinded to randomisation. Measurements are performed at inclusion, after the 3-month treatments (end of treatment), and at a 2-year follow-up. Radiography will be completed at the 2-year follow-up. Preoperative data will be collected from the Swedish Spine Registry (Swespine). Data on healthcare consumption, drug use, and sick leave will be requested from the relevant national registers.
This is a single-center, prospective controlled simulation study designed comparing and evaluating the driving performance of subjects who have had cervical spine surgery and the use of a validated driving simulator. To date, there haven't been evidence-based recommendations to determine a patient's "fitness to drive" in the peri-operative or postoperative state. The objective of this study is to delineate the effect cervical spine procedures have on driving performance in the peri-operative time period. The study will take place at New York University Langone Medical Center - Hospital for Joint Diseases which will include the surgeries. The follow up visits will be at the NYU Center for Musculoskeletal Care.
This study will be a non-randomized trial consisting of patients with single level (C3 to C7) symptomatic cervical disc disease who have not previously received fusion surgery at the same level, and have failed to improve with conservative treatment for at least 6 weeks prior to enrollment, or who present with progressive neurological symptoms or signs in the face of conservative treatment.
There are largely 2 surgical methods for one-level cervical disc disease; cage only and plate/graft. Even there are many reports about the efficacy of either cage only or plate/graft, prospective comparative study is few. The object of the present study is to present design of prospective study and to demonstrate preliminary result.
This is a multi-center, prospective, outcomes study. In this study, the Zero-P PEEK implant will be used in patients undergoing ACDF for treatment of SCDD at a single level between C3 and C7. The cohort will be followed over time to twenty-four (24) months after surgery. Up to fifteen (15) sites will participate in this study. This is not a controlled study.
