Filter by:The safety and efficacy of AK1320 MS will be evaluated in patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis and concomitant symptomatic spinal stenosis who are undergoing decompression and single level instrumented posterolateral lumber autograft fusion surgery.
This is a prospective, single-arm post market study of patients to assess fusion in one or multiple continuous levels of the lumbosacral spine (L1-S1) using ViviGen Cellular Bone Matrix. All subjects will be followed out to 24 months for final assessment.
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.
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.
The purpose of the project is to perform an RCT comparing patient satisfaction and outcome with or without the use of an expert panel. The purpose is also to create a registry to compare the effectiveness of decompression alone versus decompression with fusion for patients with degenerative grade I spondylolisthesis and symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis. Primary analysis will focus on the patients' improvement from baseline patient-reported outcome questionnaires. In addition, the SLIP II registry aims to (i) develop an algorithm which could identify cases in which surgical experts are likely to recommend one treatment (i.e. >80% of experts recommend one form of treatment) and (ii) develop a radiology-based machine learning algorithm that would prospectively classify patients as either 'stable' or 'unstable.' In addition to patient reported outcomes, step counts will be collected in order to determine the correlation of step count with patient-reported outcomes (ODI and EQ-5D) and the need for re-operation. This registry portion of the study aims to prospectively collect comparative data for these patients treated with either decompression alone or decompression with fusion.
Establish a data repository of patients who have undergone single, two-, or three-level lumbar instrumented arthrodesis procedures supplemented by the Implanet Jazz System.
To compare the effect of lumbar spinal manipulation, physical therapy and surgical management in the treatment of lumbar spinal stenosis.
A prospective study investigating the effectiveness and safety in lumbar stenosis patients receiving integrative Korean medicine treatment at 3 locations of Jaseng Hospital of Korean Medicine through assessment of pain, functional disability, and quality of life
Observational study of axial spine pain and hyperflexibility. Patients will receive physical exam maneuvers (traditional straight leg raise, FABER, facet loading as well as Beighton's hypermobility score) and blood / urine / saliva collection. They will also be separated into pain groups based on their response to injections. A correlation between exam findings and procedure group will be measured.
In actual practice the patients with mild or moderate lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms receive an epidural infiltration and participate in kyphosis reeducation in first intention. Yet the kyphosis reeducation did not show a real profit in the time compared with the natural evolution of the pathology. The study assume that the spinal mobility reeducation will reduce the incidence of pain recurrences compared with the classic kyphosis reeducation.
