Filter by:Iatrogenic spinal cord injury is the most feared complication of complex spine surgery. The incidence of neurological complications for spinal deformity surgery has been estimated by the Scoliosis Research Society as 1%, except when a combined approach is used, where the rate increases to 1.87% [1]. Intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) techniques are usually implemented during spine surgery to avoid nefarious abuse of the nervous system, which can cause postoperative problem [2]. In 1992 a Scoliosis Research Society study concluded that the use of intraoperative spinal cord neurophysiological monitoring during operative procedures including instrumentation should be considered ''a viable alternative as well as an adjunct to the use of the wake-up test during spinal surgery'' [5]. The benefit of using neuromonitoring has been validated by numerous studies involving scoliosis correction, revision surgeries and vertebral osteotomies.
Rachialgia are among the most common reasons for consultation with the general practitioner in Europe. Most of the guidelines recommend spinal manipulation. This study attempts to propose a solution with 2 parts: tests of induced pain that have a greater sensitivity than palpatory tests of movements and a comprehensive musculoskeletal treatment protocol. The aim of this study is to evaluate the Osteopathic Protocol in 2 sessions (PO2).
The primary objective is changes in spine and lower limb pain following a laser-assisted neural decompression (LAND) procedure for the treatment of lumbar, thoracic, or cervical spine and/or extremity pain. Secondary objectives will be changes in quality of life, prescription pain medication use, and patient satisfaction with procedure outcomes.
The aim of this study is to investigate the hypothesis that multimodal pain regimen (consisting of acetaminophen, celecoxib, gabapentin, and oxycodone) administered pre-operatively before elective spine surgery significantly decreases acute pain post-operatively as well as decreasing requirements of post-op opioids for pain control in PACU as compared to patients undergoing elective spine surgery without a pre-operative pain regimen.
Patient anxiety prior to invasive procedures poses a significant barrier to successful treatment if not well-managed. The purpose of this study is to evaluate lavender aromatherapy, a non-sedating alternative, to reduce anxiety prior to interventional spinal procedures.
