View clinical trials related to Spinal Fracture.
Filter by:Spinal fracture surgery is a common surgery. Post-operative pain has been reduced by the advent of so-called minimally invasive techniques. The immediate post-operative pain, however, remains relatively high, mainly because of muscle pain following the trauma. The erector spinae plane block (ESPB) is a loco-regional anesthesia technique first described in 2016. A retrospective cohort study showed an improvement in post-operative analgesia of percutaneous osteosynthesis spinal surgery through a reduction in 24-hour morphine use. In order to prove and confirm the effectiveness of this technique, we will conduct a double-blind randomized controlled study. The objective will be to demonstrate the analgesic effectiveness of the technique by reducing morphine consumption in post-operative. The expected reduction in morphine consumption is set at 30%, based on the clinical experience developed in our practice.
the main aim of this study is to evaluate the results of performing minimally invasive surgical management for cases with traumatic spinopelvic instability and spinopelvic dissociation. This will include using percutaneous pedicle and S2 alar iliac screws, minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion and transtubular posterior decompression.
Patients at the age of 50 or older presenting with thoracolumbar fractures including segments TH 6-L5 and A3/A4 fractures according to the AO Spine fracture classification after the acute trauma and planned surgery within 3 weeks following trauma will be asked to participate in a randomized trial in which they will receive either Calciumphosphate (CaP) or Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as part of a standardized treatment approach. Regardless of the group patients are randomized to, all participating patients undergo the same surgical procedure except for the preparation and administration of bone cement. The study participation period for each patient is 1 year from the date of the surgery and includes 4 defined time points that include follow-up clinical visits for imaging and progress checks at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after surgery. At each follow-up visit, a combination of questionnaires and radiological imaging will be performed to assess general health status, disability level and pain control, as well as objective results of the surgery. The main outcome measure will be the loss of correction rate that will be measured through the bi-segmental COBB angle presented in the CT-scan.
