Filter by:Pre- and postoperative pain in patients with degenerative stenosis requires great attention, as it can mislead the doctor about treatment tactics. Neuropathic pain in the legs before and after the surgical procedure, as well as the residual or recurrent pain syndrome existing against this background, overshadow the patient's recovery and cast doubt on the fullness of the performed decompression. Neural compression in the spinal canal and back pain may be the cause of the patient's antalgic posture and sagittal imbalance as seen on X-Ray, to need for corrective interventions surgical procedure. Thus, it is necessary to clarify the role and the influence of the pain and its type on the perioperative period in patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis.
A single-center, prospective cohort trial aims to provide stronger evidence regarding the impact of degenerative spondylolisthesis on the clinical outcome of unilateral biportal endoscopy for lumbar spinal stenosis
Identification of clinical and instrumental parameters that could predict the outcome of surgical decompression of lumbar degenerative stenosis.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a modification to metaxalone 640 mg can reduce low back and leg pain. The participants will be 18 to 80 years old, healthy with newly occurring back or leg pain. The main question aims to compare a group taking active treatment and a group taking a look-alike substance containing no active treatment. All participants will answer questions on Day 1, before treatment, and on 7-day after treatment, about: - Amount and quality of pain - Interference with physical activity - Interference with sleep
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 clinical trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of acupuncture in alleviating neurogenic claudication symptoms among patients with degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS).
Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is one of the most common degenerative diseases of the spinal column, with symptoms including low back pain which worsens with ambulation, poor balance, decreased activity due to pain, and a marked decrease in quality of life (QoL). Prevalence rises with age, and current treatment options range from varied conservative management strategies, to surgical intervention with decompression of neural structures. While the effects of surgical decompression on back pain and QoL has been widely researched, the effects of surgery on patient balance is less well understood. Though patients generally have subjective improvements in this parameter after surgery, objective measurements in this patient group have been lacking. This study aims to investigate the effects of decompressive surgery on postural balance in elderly patients with LSS. Measurements of postural balance will be taken before and after decompressive surgery, as well as with regular intervals during a two-year follow-up period. A better understanding of the effect that LSS has on balance may lead to more patients being able to receive surgical treatment, which is hypothesized to lead to an increase in QoL and less perceived disability amongst this patient group.

Primary objective: To identify older adults with transthyretin cardiac amyloidosis (ATTR-CA) early in the course of the illness, at a time when disease modifying therapies are most effective. The specific aims of this epidemiologic investigation include: 1. To identify subjects with previous lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) Surgery who have evidence of transthyretin (TTR) amyloid deposits in spinal specimens and could be at risk for ATTR cardiac amyloidosis. 2. To evaluate for ATTR-CA among those with localized TTR in the spinal tissue. The study will also explore the following: 1. The prevalence of amyloid in lumbar spinal stenosis specimens by Congo Red staining. 2. The prevalence of TTR deposits among subjects with amyloid as determined by mass spectrometry. 3. Evaluation of a novel artificial intelligence technique for that can identify amyloid histologically with standard H&E staining. 4. Difference in ATTR-CA prevalence between subjects with TTR and indeterminate amyloid deposits in subject's spine by myocardial uptake of technetium pyrophosphate scan (Tc99-PYP).
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate whether modified enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) can shorten the postoperative hospital stay among patients with lumbar degenerative disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether ERAS can shorten the postoperative hospital stay. Whether modified ERAS can improve postoperative functional recovery, improve functional score and pain score, reduce hospitalization costs, improve mental state, and improve abdominal indicators, etc. Participants will be randomized into modified ERAS group, or control group.
