NCT ID: NCT03843476 Withdrawn - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Personalized Spine Study Group Registry

Start date: January 2014
Phase:
Study type: Observational [Patient Registry]

As a registry, the primary objective of the study is a data collection initiative. The study will collect clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients implanted with Medicrea's PSR. The secondary objective is to collect clinical and radiographic outcomes of patients with Medicrea hardware as a control cohort to the patient-specific rods.

NCT ID: NCT03801356 Terminated - Back Pain Clinical Trials

Threshold Response of Lumbar Selective Nerve Root Block in Predicting Good Outcome Following Lumbar Foraminotomy

Start date: August 23, 2018
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

SNRB, as measured by the change in pain and objective functional ability, can solicit crucial information regarding a patient's clinical picture and can predict a patient's outcome post-surgery. By using the walk test as an objective functional assessment, the aim is to better standardize the threshold for a positive response to SNRB. In summary, SNRB, despite utilized frequently in the diagnostic work-up with patients with lumbar radiculopathy, vary widely in their sensitivity and specificity. The reasons, as outlined above, are multifactorial. The proposed study aims to minimize the known limitations of these injections and prospectively define their positive and negative predictive value in a homogenous group of patients undergoing surgery for lumbar foraminal stenosis and radiculopathy. The design will define a threshold of response utilizing both subjective and objective measures and more accurately predict excellent results following surgery.

NCT ID: NCT03784729 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Efficacy of Acupuncture for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Start date: March 25, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) is a condition which there is narrowing space of sagittal diameter of spinal canal or nerve root canal for spinal nerve or cauda equina secondary to degenerative changes. DLSS is a common cause of gluteal or lower extremity pain, women and elderly people aged 60-70 are more likely to have DLSS. The early symptoms of this disease are soreness and pain in the low back, gluteal region and posterior region of thighs which can be relieved after resting or changing posture. Being accompanied with gradually aggravated symptoms, patients with DLSS may have neurogenic claudication with hypoesthesia and numbness in lateral lower legs and feet, additionally, few patients may have bowel and bladder disturbances. In accordance of the guidelines of North American Spine Society (NASS), treatment options comprise surgical therapy, epidural steroid injections and physical therapy and transcutaneous electrical stimulation, however, the long-term efficacy of surgery is not superior to that of non-surgical therapy. Moreover, the short-term efficacy of non-surgical therapy is with insufficient evidence. According to a systematic review and recent studies, acupuncture may improve the symptoms of patients and their quality of life, however, there is a lack of placebo-controlled and large sample sized study.

NCT ID: NCT03754972 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Sagittal Plane Shear Index for Planning Lumbar Stenosis Surgery

SPSI
Start date: February 20, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the clinical investigation is to assess the proportion of lumbar spinal stenosis surgical treatment plans that change when an objective measurement of spinal stability is included and applied following a simple treatment algorithm. The objective spinal stability metric is calculated from flexion-extension radiographs using previously validated methods.

NCT ID: NCT03753945 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Spine MRI in Patients With Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS)

Start date: March 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of patients implanted with deep brain stimulation (DBS) is under strict safety guidelines. Depending on the body part being imaged, the safety may vary. Many DBS patients will need a spine MRI based on their clinical symptoms. However, the vendor safety guidelines are limiting in terms of possible MR pulse sequences. Based on phantom safety data, we designed a set of MR pulse sequences deemed as safe as possible and the protocol allows acquisition of diagnostic quality MRI images.

NCT ID: NCT03748277 Terminated - Clinical trials for Spinal Stenosis Lumbar Canal With Neurogenic Claudication (Diagnosis)

Comparison of Open and Minimally Invasive Surgical Techniques in the Treatment of Degenerative One-level Stenosis of Lumbar Spine

Start date: November 15, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiological results of surgical treatment of one-level central stenosis of the lumbar spine using traditional open approach (PLIF) and a minimally invasive procedure (MIS TLIF). According to the hypothesis, we assume that unilateral approach of MIS TLIF allows for adequate bilateral decompression of one-level central stenosis of the lumbar spine. Using MIS TLIF it is possible to perform reliable fixation of a spine segment and the formation of a complete intervertebral bone fusion. The long-term clinical results of surgical treatment with minimally invasive technologies (MIS TLIF) and traditional open approach (PLIF) suspected to be comparable.

NCT ID: NCT03746561 Not yet recruiting - Spinal Stenosis Clinical Trials

Automatic Diagnosis of Spinal Stenosis on CT

ASSIST
Start date: November 2018
Phase:
Study type: Observational

MRI is a common tool for radiographic diagnosis of spinal stenosis, but it is expensive and requires long scanning time. CT is also a useful tool to diagnose spinal stenosis, yet interpretation can be time-consuming with high inter-reader variability even among the most specialized radiologists. In this study, the investigators aim to develop a deep-learning algorithm to automatically detect and classify lumbar spinal stenosis.

NCT ID: NCT03745040 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Liposomal Bupivacaine in One-level Instrumented Posterior Spinal Fusion

Start date: January 26, 2019
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

This study will describe postoperative pain management for spine surgery patients receiving liposomal bupivacaine (Exparel®) compared to patients not receiving the drug.

NCT ID: NCT03733626 Active, not recruiting - Clinical trials for Degenerative Disc Disease

Clinical Outcomes Associated With the Use of ViviGen® for the Treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Disc Disease

ViviGen
Start date: March 19, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of this study is to perform a prospective, randomized, controlled clinical trial to compare radiographic fusion rates and patient reported outcomes, including pain and function preoperatively and postoperatively, using Depuy ViviGen® Cellular Bone Matrix mixed with cortical/cancellous allograft in conjunction with an approved Depuy Synthes pedicle screw system compared to autograft mixed with cortical/cancellous allograft in conjunction with the same DePuy Synthes pedicle screw system used for a one or two - level posterolateral lumbar fusion.

NCT ID: NCT03647501 Completed - Clinical trials for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
