Filter by:Active discopathies or MODIC 1, are a diagnostic entity discovery with the contribution of MRI in which the first cases were described by Dr. Michael MODIC in 1988. It is characterized by a vertebral bone edema secondary to active discarthrose. Its prevalence is estimated at 6% of the general population and up to 40% of the CLBP according to studies. Following the discovery of this recent diagnostic entity, responsible for low back pain, the question of its management is debate in the medical community. Early studies demonstrate the effectiveness of corticosteroid injections in intra-disc. Other works, most recent, suggest the contrary, infectious, incriminating a pathogenic role of certain bacteria such as Propionibacterium acness or Corynebacterium propinquum recommending, in contrast, treatment with prolonged antibiotic therapy. This study will aim to assess the effectiveness of intra-disc infiltration GHPSJ carried out between 2007 and 2014. The innovation of our work will be to assess these infiltrations in various subgroups such as patients with a previous surgery of the spine or a history of scoliosis or spondylolisthesis.
Many patients receiving opioid based analgesia after spinal surgery experience postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) despite prophylaxis and treatment with antiemetic agents. Dehydration caused by fasting prior to surgery is associated with the development of PONV. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of oral carbohydrates loading prior to surgery in patients at high risk of PONV undergoing spinal surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from human bone marrow at a dose of 1.0E+6 MSC/kg in subject for the therapy of Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and to compare the efficacy of MSCs and Etanercept to treat this disease.
Details regarding the degenerative spine disorders will be collected with a specific focus on the use of osteobiologics in treating degenerative conditions and their impact on fusion, as well as patient-reported outcomes for these conditions.
In the present study, the investigators compare intermediate and deep NMB i.e. the two extreme regimes of muscle paralysis (neuromuscular block; NMB), (I) patients receiving intermediate muscle paralysis (''control, conventional NMB'') versus (II) patients with a deep neuromuscular blockade with rocuronium (''Deep NMB''), will be compared during a surgical procedure which is considered to be very sensitive for inadequate muscle relaxation, elective minimally invasive spinal surgery. The primary objective of this trial is to compare the operation time reduction with the help of the decreased stiffness of targeted back muscle surrounding the surgical field. The changed back muscle stiffness also measured as secondary objective goal by a mechanical tension weighing scale and also taking ultrasonography using shear wave elastography (SWE). Other observational objectives are divided into the following categories of stakeholders: patients, surgeons and anesthesiologists', done by collecting the variety of clinical parameters. The following will be collected and compared. 1. For patients Intraoperative radiation amount, post-anesthetic care unit(PACU) stay, transfer rate to SICU for post-op. care, post-operative respiratory complication rate, and total hospital costs. 2. For surgeons Post-operative complications in regard to operation field, and evaluate surgical conditions using a Visual Analogue Scale(VAS score) in surgeon's side. 3. For anesthesiologists Intraoperative ventilation parameters of patients, and evaluate surgical conditions using a Visual Analogue Scale(VAS score) in anesthesiologist's side.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of perioperative Lidocaine intravenous infusion in reducing postoperative pain for spine surgery patients.
The investigators aim to investigate operating conditions, postoperative recovery and overall satisfaction of surgeons between deep neuromuscular blockade (NMB) group and restricted NMB group during spinal surgery under general anesthesia. The investigators hypothesize that this study can present good surgical conditions, postoperative recovery outcomes and overall satisfaction of surgeons in deep NMB group, thereby proving the advantages of deep NMB as well as flaws of restricted NMB in spine surgeries.
For this study the investigators will conduct five-day trial periods for spinal cord stimulator (SCS) effectiveness—once a patient is deemed to be a possible SCS candidate, the trial leads are implanted and they are asked to return to clinic in five days to evaluate the effectiveness of the trial. The primary outcome for this study will be a comparison of daily energy expenditure (EE), in units of kcal/day, prior to and after the trial implantation of the SCS leads and external pulse generator. Patients will wear the accelerometer device twenty-four hours a day for five days prior to the trial lead implantation to obtain baseline values, have the trial leads implanted in the procedure clinic, then continue to wear the accelerometer for another five days. Baseline and post-SCS energy expenditure values will be compared. The secondary outcomes for this study will be steps taken, hours of sleep, and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI, as described in appendix 1) during the pre and post trial implantation periods. SCS itself is not a research procedure in this study, rather it is part of routine medical care for patients who would benefit from the procedure.

Evaluate safety and efficacy of dexmedetomidine in minimally invasive spine surgery under local anesthesia sedation.Explore the appropriate concentration of dexmedetomidine, whether or not can reduce the amount of local anesthetics.
