Filter by:This multicenter, non-comparative clinical trial, led by two principal investigators in Spain, aims to evaluate the safety and performance of a robotic assistant, based on a electromechanical tracking system, in patients requiring transpedicular screw fixation. The study, conducted in two different hospital centers, involves patients with vertebral fractures, spinal stenosis, kyphosis, and other related conditions. The primary objective is to determine screw accuracy by assessing the degree of screw invasion into the pedicle using the Gertzbein-Robbins scale, with a target of achieving 96% acceptable screw placement. Trained radiologists will evaluate the screw invasion into the pedicle. The study is scheduled to span 12 months and each intervention includes a 1-month follow-up. Throughout this time frame, patients will undergo regular assessments, and outcomes will be closely monitored.
Postoperative pain still represents an important perioperative issue, affecting more than 80% of patients undergoing surgery. A suboptimal pain management doesn't just affects quality of life, but can compromise rehabilitation plan, increase morbidity and determine the development of chronic pain. Last but not least, far from being just an obligation for physicians, a good analgesia is a fundamental right of every patient. In order to meet these important demands, a great number of guidelines has been provided, all of these underlying that the centerpiece of postoperative analgesia lies in the multimodality management, thereby combining different medications and different ways of delivering them, with the aim of targeting distinct receptor systems and improving efficacy, while limiting side effects. In 2018, the investigators conducted a case-series analysis on 17 patients undergoing lumbar surgery to find out the role of Sublingual Sufentanil Tablet System (SSTS) in a multimodal analgesia regimen. Patients expressed a good pain relief, with most benefit during physiotherapy sessions and early discharges, in absence of side effects. Since then, SSTS has been part of regular clinical practice in our hospital. The aim of this randomized trial is to examine the analgesic efficacy and the opioid sparing role in spine surgery of a recently developed regional anesthesia technique, the Erector Spinae Plane block (ESP block), as opposed to Local Anaesthetic (LA) wound infiltration. The latter is a widespread, simple and unexpensive mean of providing postoperative analgesia. On the other hand, ESP block is an ultrasound-guided interfascial plain block, in which LA is injected below the erector spine muscle, closer to costotransverse foramina and origin of dorsal and ventral rami. It does provide an efficient multidermatomal sensory blockade (according to craniocaudal LA spread), with the advantage of being simple and safe.
A prospective study included 91 patients, who had single level thoracolumbar fracture with Cobb's angle ≤ 25⁰, underwent posterior fixation. Forty four patients underwent short segment fixation with screws into the index level, and 47 patients underwent long segment fixation with skipped index level. The angle of correction, pain, and neurological state were regularly assessed
To detect Radiological parameters affecting neurological injury after thoracolumbar spinal fractures.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy and safety of Spine fusion system manufactured in China is no inferior than imported product.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether percutaneous vertebroplasty is able to improve long-term quality of life in patients with pain secondary to osteoporotic vertebral fractures, compared to conventional medical treatment.
This study will compare two treatments in acute stable traumatic vertebral fractures (types A1, A2 and A3.1 in MAGERL Classification). The two treatments are the followings: 1. Conservative Orthopedic Management consisting of brace and pain medication. 2. Percutaneous Balloon Kyphoplasty, a variant of Vertebroplasty, in which a balloon is first placed into the fractured vertebra and inflated with fluid in order to create a cavity. This may restore part of the vertebral height loss due to the fracture and facilitate the injection of the cement with low pressure. The primary outcome will be the variation in the angle of Regional Vertebral Kyphosis (or, in the case of asymmetrical fractures, the angle of lateral vertebral inclination) between inclusion and one year follow-up. It will indicate if Balloon Kyphoplasty is able to restore vertebral height of the fractured vertebra better than Conservative Orthopedic Management.
The purpose of the study is to determine if daily teriparatide reduces back pain more effectively than weekly risedronate in women with osteoporosis who have chronic back pain due to a spinal bone fracture.
