Filter by:In anterior cervical disc surgery, head and neck extansion position and, surgical retraction used while reaching the anterior surface of the cervical vertebra can be affect the carotid blood flow and constituting a risk for cerebral ischaemia. In this study, we planned to investigate the relationship between head position and retraction, cerebral oxygenation and postoperative cognitive functions in patients undergoing anterior cervical disc surgery.
This study is aim to disclose the effect of contrast media, which used in epidural steroid injections, on the parameters of thyroid function tests (TFTs). The patients who underwent an epidural steroid injection were included. The investigators hypothesized that contrast media owing to contain iodine may impair the values of TFTs.
Opioid overdose suppresses brainstem respiratory circuits, causes apnea, and may result in death. Epidural electrical stimulation (EES) at the cervical spinal cord facilitated motor activity in rodents and humans, and we hypothesized that EES of the cervical spinal cord could antagonize opioid-induced respiratory depression in humans. In this study, we will stimulate the spinal cord during surgery and assess its effects on respiratory function in human patients.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and performance of anterior cervical spine surgery using the NuVasive anterior cervical plate (ACP) System as measured by reported complications, radiographic outcomes, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs).
The primary objective of this study is to obtain evidence of the effectiveness of AlloWrap Amniotic Membrane in the reduction of soft tissue swelling in two-level ACDF procedures.
To assess the usefulnes sof misoprostol versus placebo (in a double-blind placebo controlled randomized clinical trial)to facilitate the insertion of copper-IUD and the levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) in cases of failure due to cervical stenosis in either nulligravidas and parous women. Additionally to evaluate the side-effects of the misoprostol. The hypothesis is that misoprostol may be better than placebo.
Subsidence of cervical cages is a common problem. For the study, a new polyacrylmethacrylate cage was designed and prospectively implanted in patients with a mono- or bilevel cervical pathology. As control, a commercially available PEEK-cage was used, patients were randomized using minimization randomization, controlling for age and bone mineral densitiy. The investigators hypothesize that the newly developed cage has similar clinical and radiological qualities compared to the PEEK-cage, but at a much more favourable cost-performance ratio.
