Risk Factors of Second Surgery for Adjacent Segment Disease Following

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Although the incidence of second surgery for adjacent segment disease (ASD) after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has been reported, its risk factors remain elusive. Few studies have had a sufficiently large number of patients, long follow-up time, and high follow-up rate for investigation. To identify non-surgical risk factors of second surgery for ASD following ACDF, the study used a national cohort with comprehensive follow-up.

Clinical Trial Description

All second ACDF surgery after one year from the first ACDF were identified as a consequence of ASD that required another surgery. A multivariate competing risk survival model, Kaplan-Meier survivorship, and average time to events were calculated.

2.1. Data source and ethical concerns The study used the National Health Insurance Research Database (NHIRD), a national database containing 26 million administered insurants accumulated from January 1997 to December 2013, provided by the National Health Research Institutes of Taiwan. Due to the unique social-welfare health insurance system operated by the government, it is mandatory for every resident in Taiwan to be enrolled. Thus, the NHIRD has covered 99% of the population since its launch in 1996. The monopolistic national health insurance also offers unrestricted access to any healthcare provider of the patients' choices. The statistics, therefore, gathered by the NHIRD represent a sound cohort for investigation of the natural course and subsequent management of diseases. It is particularly good for studies that need longitudinal observation for repeat treatment (i.e. surgery for ASD) because it allows for the capture of events, even though they may occur in multiple or different institutes and hospitals. The universal coverage and comprehensive follow-up provided a valuable chance to study ASD.

All the personal information had already undergone a de-identification and encryption process. Individual and hospital identifiers are unique to the research database and researchers therefore cannot trace individual patients or health service providers. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
