Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of NovoMax™ in Anterior Cervical Interbody Fusion - Comparison of NovoMax™ versus ChronOs®.
Anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has shown good treatment results for a variety of cervical spine diseases such as herniated intervertebral disc (HIVD), cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) and cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). ACDF using autogenous iliac bone graft is gold standard, however, it may lead to donor-site morbidities. Preventing these complications, some authors have tried to use alterative bone graft substitutes. Among these alternatives, Cervios ChronOs™ which is the polyetheretherketone (PEEK) cage with b-tricalcium phosphate (TCP) has become popular and shown good clinical results. However, b-TCP has only osteoconduction ability of three osteogenic properties. Recently, Bonion™ which is the PEEK cage filled with hydroxyapatite (HA) / demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is introduced. HA/DBM mixture has abilities of osteoconduction and osteoinduction, therefore this alternative is expected to show superior bone fusion capability to PEEK cage with b-TCP. However, there has been no comparison study between the PEEK cage with b-TCP and the PEEK cage with HA/DBM. The purpose of this study is to evaluate bone fusion rate between these cervical spine cages using postoperative computed tomography (CT)
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of adding mechanical traction to standard physical therapy treatments for patients with neck and arm pain.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of adding mechanical traction to standard physical therapy treatments for patients with low back pain.
The purpose of this study is to determine if participation in physical therapy in conjunction with a selective nerve root block in the lumbar spine is more effective than just receiving the injection alone for patients with low back and leg pain from a disk herniation (sciatica).
The purpose of this study is to find out if use of a cervical disc prosthesis in the treatment of a cervical disc herniation preserves or restores normal mobility and movement in the cervical spine.
The purpose of this study was to compare standardized chiropractic treatment (spinal manipulation) to back surgery (microdiscectomy) for patients with sciatica secondary to lumbar herniated disc refractory to medical management.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of oral pregabalin 150 mg as premedication reduces the amount and degree of postoperative pain. Furthermore the purpose of this study is to determine whether the use of oral pregabalin 150 mg as premedication reduces anxiety prior to anaesthesia in these patients.
