Filter by:This is a real world data collection observational study at a single site. There are both prospective and retrospective cohorts. The study will examine the safety and effectiveness of the Synergy cervical disc system in patients with degenerative cervical disc disease.
Low back pain, associated with intrinsic disorders of the spine, is a very frequent clinical condition that is accompanied by high morbidity with effects both on psychosocial aspects, and health care system. It occurs in approximately 80% of the population throughout their lives. Most low back pain is associated with intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) associated with neuroinflammation and pain. In this context, the study of sphingolipid metabolism can play an important role in the identification of new molecules responsible for the degenerative process. Sphingolipids, in fact, are a class of molecules that are implicated in multiple signal pathways, such as proliferation, degradation of the extracellular matrix, inflammatory state, apoptosis and migration. In particular, sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), an intermediate of sphingolipid metabolism, acts as a pro-inflammatory mediator, predominantly in the extracellular environment, regulating important cellular properties related to inflammatory potential and pain. The objective of this study is to characterize the degenerative process in cells isolated from degenerated human intervertebral discs from both at cellular and molecular levels in order to identify new targets implicated in degenerative processes, including sphingolipid signaling pathway.
The goal of this observational study is to confirm the safety and performance of the three (3) Spinevision posterior fixations systems Lumis®, Plus® and Ulis® , in the treatment of patient suffering from thoracolumbar spinal degenerative pathologies, or degenerative disc disease (disease that occurs when the spinal disk break down) associated pathologies. Part of their standard of care, participants will be questioned on their back and leg pains, their disability and if they have encountered any adverse effects since the Spinevision posterior fixation system implant surgery. Those data will be collected up to twenty four (24) months after the Spinevision posterior fixation system implant surgery.
Previous clinical study carried out on cancer patients at IOR Spine Surgery (approved in October 2014). The carbon device is indicated in patients suffering from vertebral tumors who need stabilization and will then carry out radiotherapy, because carbon has a practically zero level of interference with ionizing radiation. Carbon also allows for better visualization of the implants on MRI/CT and X-ray. There are no studies in the literature analyzing the use of carbon fiber devices in lumbar degenerative pathologies. 118 patients suffering from degenerative spinal pathology requiring 1 or 2 levels of lumbar or lumbosacral fusion will be valutated.
The purpose of this clinical study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the OsteoAdapt SP as a replacement for the autograft standard of care bone graft within the interbody cage, as well as identify the OsteoAdapt SP dose to be investigated in a future pivotal study.
The primary objective of the study is to assess the overall efficacy of a single intervertebral local administration of AGA111 in patients with degenerative disc disease undergoing lumbar interbody fusion.
The main objective of this study was to validate the clinical effectiveness of interbody fusion with a one-segment extension for the treatment of adjacent segmental space discs in the surgical treatment of lumbar degeneration.
The goal of this observational study is to confirm the safety and efficacy of the Hexanium TLIF system in the treatment of skeletally mature patients suffering from degenerative disc disease (disease that occurs when the spinal disk break down). Part of their standard of care, participants will be questioned on their back and leg pains, their disability and if they have encountered any adverse effects since the Hexanium TLIF system implant surgery. Those data will be collected up to twenty four (24) months after the Hexanium TLIF system implant surgery.
Low back pain (LBP) is the largest cause of morbidity in the world, and about 80% of Chinese people are affected in their lifetime. Although the prevalence of IDD gradually increases with age, IDD is very common among subjects under 30 years old. In addition to age, there are other factors, such as excessive or uneven mechanical load, obesity, genetics, nutrition, trauma and gender. In addition, it is not clear whether the heavy physical load associated with occupation is an important risk factor for IDD. Some studies have found that IDD is more common among athletes than the general population. Due to the complexity and multifactorial nature of IDD, its pathogenesis and risk factors are still unclear, which seriously hinders the rational stratification of LBP patients and limits the development of personalized treatment.
