Filter by:Is there a relationship between changes in motor evoked potential latency intraoperatively and post-operative changes in walking function in patients undergoing spinal decompression.
In this prospective multi-centre double-blind trial the effect of the X-ray examinations controlled periradicular therapy should be examined in (approximately 300) adult patients with low back pain pain caused by foraminal stenosis radiculopathy or spinal stenosis. A periradicular therapy (PRT) is a special radiological, low-risk therapy for chronic back pain caused by wear and tear of the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine or a herniated disc or disc bulge. Partially pain might also radiate to the hips or extremities and cause radicular symptoms.
In this prospective multi-centre double-blind trial the effect of the epiduroscopy will be examined in (approximately 300) adult patients with low back pain pain caused by failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS).
The purpose of the coflexCOMMUNITY observational study is to collect information on patients with spinal stenosis undergoing back surgery with the coflex® implant, and to look at their outcomes and the cost-effectiveness of this procedure.
The aim is to study if pre-surgery physiotherapy improves function, pain and health in patients with specific low back pain scheduled for surgery. Patients are followed over a two year period. A secondary aim is to study what factors predict short and long term outcomes.
Nocturnal calf cramps is a common complaint in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of botulinum toxin A injection into the gastrocnemius muscle in lumbar spinal stenosis patients receiving conservative therapy. We will compare pain score, insomnia severity, functional ability, patient satisfaction, and neurophysiological variables change using electrical stimulator between control (conservative management for spinal stenosis) and botox group (conservative management for spinal stenosis plus botox injection into the gastrocnemius muscle).
Major purpose of this research is to evaluate the effect and usefulness of Buprenorphine transdermal system (MTDS) among the patients with lumbar spinal disease who was performed the single-level posterior lumbar fusion. After surgery, all the patients apply the patient-controlled analgesia. After three days of surgery, patients are divided into two groups.Group A is an experimental group that administer the BTDS after surgery, and Group B is a control group that take tramadol analgesics. If the patient's pain score exceeds the NRS 4, they can take the additional rescue medicine, acetaminophen. After the surgery, patient's pain score and quality of life would be recorded sequentially. The time of recording is postoperative 36 hours, 72 hours, 7 days, 2 weeks, 4 weeks, and 3 months, respectively.
Establish a data repository of patients who have undergone thoracic and/or lumbar instrumented arthrodesis procedure supplemented by the Implanet Jazz System.
High percentage of chronic back pain is due to spinal stenosis. The clinical picture is of 'neurogenic claudication' which effects postural balance and stability. If conservative treatment fail to improve symptoms, an invasive treatment which includes spinal decompression can be done. The research is an observational prospective one, pre and post operational intervention. The aim is to examine whether an operational intervention improves quality of life, pain, postural balance an stability among patients. It's important to clarify, that although there is operational intervention, the research is observational. The decision weather to operate or not, is not a part of the research. The investigators assume that since there is a population that independently going through an operation, the investigators can observe this population and evaluate different aspects of the operation outcomes.
The study is intended to demonstrate that the NuCel® allograft is effective and safe in promoting bone growth and fusion rate when used in cervical fusion in patients with one, two or three-level diseases of the cervical spine.
