Pain following spinal surgery, can lead to significant morbidity, limit early mobility, and increase the risk of chronic pain. This trial examines the analgesic effects of dexamethasone as an adjuvant to ropivacaine in wound infiltration after lumbar surgery. Methods: In this study, we randomly assigned sixty patients undergoing lumbar laminectomy and/or osteosynthesis into two groups of 30 patients each. The control group (R-group) received only Ropivacaine (150 mg of Ropivacaine 7.5% (20 ml) added to 2 ml of normal saline in the wound infiltration), while the intervention group (RD-group) received Ropivacaine with the addition of dexamethasone (150 mg of Ropivacaine 7.5% (20 ml) added to 8 mg of dexamethasone in the wound infiltration). Both groups were administered patient-controlled analgesia (PCA) with morphine for self-medication. Postoperatively, a blinded evaluator assessed pain at H0, recorded the assessment of surgical scar pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 4, 6, 12, 24, and 48 hours, as well as the time to the first opioid request, cumulative morphine consumption, opioid-related side effects, and length of stay. All patients were scheduled for a 3-month follow-up call to monitor chronic pain progression.
This is a prospective, randomized controlled trial of patients undergoing minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion. This study will randomize patients into one of two groups: erector spinae plane (ESP) block and no ESP block.
The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to investigate whether modified enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) in oblique lumbar interbody fusion (OLIF) can shorten the postoperative hospital stay among patients with lumbar degenerative disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Whether ERAS can shorten the postoperative hospital stay. Whether modified ERAS can improve postoperative functional recovery, improve functional score and pain score, reduce hospitalization costs, improve mental state, and improve abdominal indicators, etc. Participants will be randomized into modified ERAS group, or control group.
The specific aims of this proposal are to: Examining the effects of dorsal column stimulation on pain from lumbar spinal stenosis related to lumbar epidural lipomatosis. The primary outcome will be improvement in VAS score of combined back and leg pain at 6 weeks follow-up. Secondary outcomes will include improvement in Visual Analog Scale (VAS) back pain scores, VAS leg pain scores, and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) , as well as SCS complication rate.

Spinal stenosis is the most common cause of degenerative spinal surgery. The majority do not achieve the global recommendations for health-promoting physical activity before or after surgery. Patients with a low level of physical activity and a high degree of fear of movement are at an increased risk of poorer health outcomes after surgery. Increasing the number of steps per day is a way to increase physical activity, which in long term can lead to health benefits. In addition, a digital format is a way to increase the availability of physiotherapy to strive for equal rehabilitation. The overall purpose of the research project is to improve health outcome and increase the availability of rehabilitation for patients at high risk of negative health outcomes after spinal surgery due to spinal stenosis through Get Back, a person-centered and digital program with a focus on physical activity. Before conducting a large-scale study, the investigators want to conduct a study that aims to investigate and develop the Get Back program regarding content and dose, treatment fidelity as well as feasibility in terms of study procedure, compliance, and acceptability. Approximately thirty patients with lumbar spinal stenosis and an identified risk profile for poorer postoperative outcomes will be recruited from two spine clinics in Sweden. The program involves meeting a physiotherapist digitally (through video call) approximately 1 week before surgery to formulate a person-centered health plan. The health plan is monitored and progressed by the physiotherapist by video until eleven weeks after surgery. The Get Back program includes 5 sessions (1 hour each) which are supplemented with 5 booster sessions (30 minutes) to reinforce the intervention. Get Back is based on three key components that run through all sessions. These are person-centeredness, behavioral medicine techniques to reduce fear of movement and worries about pain, as well as to optimize physical activity. The physiotherapist supports the participant's individual resources and abilities through validated behavioral medicine methods in combination with education/communication/knowledge support and behavior-strengthening tools (which are also used in-between sessions) to achieve the participant's personal goals linked to physical functioning, physical activity, and health. The program will be compared to standard physiotherapy.
Degenerative lumbar spine disease is a leading cause of disability in the world; it encompasses conditions such as spondylolisthesis, disc degeneration, and lumbar spinal stenosis. Those conditions present with a variety of clinical symptoms, including lower extremity pain, weakness, and low back pain (LBP) of varying levels of severity and in severe cases urine and stool incontinence may result.
To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of individualized, precise and standardized open-door posterior cervical surgery through a single-center, exploratory clinical study, so as to provide a more reliable basis for the treatment of cervical spinal stenosis.
The aim of study was evaluated the relationship between the relevant evaluation indexes of cervical spine open-door surgery, prognosis and complication rate, and provided theoretical basis for personalized surgical program through multi-center retrospective clinical study
The primary objective is to use machine learning methods on large survey and health register data to identify participants with different treatment trajectories and health outcomes after surgical and/or conservative treatment for spinal disorders. Secondary objectives are to 1) conduct external validation of the prediction models, and 2) explore how the prediction models can be implemented into AI-based clinical co-decision tools and interventions.
The study investigates the prevalence of cardiac amyloidosis among patients with a history of lumbar spinal stenosis within the last ten years in the region of central Denmark.
