50 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This study will explore the use of OP-1 Putty in conjunction with surgical treatment for the treatment of spinal decompression and lumbar spinal fusion.
This study is to provide additional data to support the safety and efficacy of OP-1 Putty as a replacement for autograft in patients undergoing posterolateral spinal fusion.
The trial was designed to demonstrate the comparability of the overall success rate in the OP-1 Putty treatment group to the autograft treatment group.
The main objective of this study is the external validation of the appropriateness criteria for the surgical treatment of Lumbar Degenerative Spondylolisthesis. We will assess, prospectively, whether patients treated "appropriately" have better outcomes than those treated "inappropriately" according to the RAND Appropriateness Method (RAM) Criteria.
The purpose of this study is to determine differences in the XLIF and TLIF procedures with respect to perioperative variables in adult patients with low-grade symptomatic spondylolisthesis.
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.
"RECK" is a combination of local anesthesia medications, used for the purpose of pain control. RECK is an acronym which stands for Ropivacaine, Epinephrine, Clonidine, and Ketorolac. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of RECK local injectable anesthetic in the setting of posterior spinal fusion. Our specific aims are the following. Primary aim: to investigate the effect of RECK local injectable anesthetic on postoperative VAS pain scores. Secondary aims: to investigate of effect of RECK injection on postoperative opioid consumption and hospital length of stay. Hypothesis: RECK injection will significantly decrease postoperative VAS pain score, opioid consumption, and hospital length of stay compared to placebo controls.
The purpose of this early study is to compare the clinical results of the new Conduit Interbody device to the traditional Concorde Bullet Device. The primary objective is to explore the rates and reasons for re-operation between both constructs at 2 years.
The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to assess and compare radiographic and clinical outcomes in patients who are to undergo combined interbody/posterolateral lumbar fusion procedures, supplemented with pedicle screw instrumentation, using one of the following interbody cages; the Nexxt Spine Nexxt MatrixxTM 3D-printed titanium cage or the HonourTM poly-ether-ether-ketone cage.
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.
Most patients undergoing surgery experience significant post-operative pain. Inadequate peri-operative pain management may decrease post-operative mobilization and increase length of hospitalization. Additionally, poorly managed acute post-operative pain analgesia is associated with an increased risk of developing chronic pain and delayed wound healing. Lumbar spine surgery is particularly painful, often requiring a multi-day hospitalization. The most common post-operative analgesia used in spine surgery is narcotic medication delivered via an intravenous patient controlled analgesia (IV PCA). A multimodal peri-operative pain management protocol for spine surgery has the potential to not only decrease pain but also to improve recovery, decrease narcotic consumption, decrease length of stay in the hospital and reduce both direct and indirect hospital costs. The purpose of this study is to determine if post-operative pain and rate of recovery are improved in patients undergoing spine surgery using MMA compared to usual analgesic care.
The objective of this clinical study is to compare OSTEOAMP SELECT Fibers to Infuse Bone Graft, in terms of effectiveness and safety, when used as a bone graft substitute in in skeletally mature patients qualified for 2-lumbar interbody fusion (LIF) by means of an intra-patient control model.
Opioid overuse is a widespread public health crisis in the United States with increasing rates of addiction and overdose deaths from prescription opioids. Reducing the need for opiate analgesics in the post-operative setting has become a high priority in minimizing long-term opioid use in surgical patients. This study will serve to demonstrate the efficacy of the addition of regional analgesic techniques in reducing post-operative opioid requirements in patients undergoing common lumbar spinal surgical procedures.
This study is designed to evaluate clinical outcomes and spine fusion rates for patients undergoing transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion using the CONDUIT 3D printed titanium TLIF cage.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of 12 weeks of daily treatment with teriparatide on spine fusion in adult patients who are undergoing multi-level posterolateral spine fusion surgery for degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effect and safety of NuCel to DBX on patients undergoing posteriolateral lumbar spinal fusions for degenerative disc disease.
The purpose of this trial is to collect clinical outcomes including radiographic and CT outcomes in patients who undergo spinal fusion using the Keos Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device.
The purpose of this trial is to collect clinical outcomes including radiographic and CT outcomes in patients who undergo interbody spinal fusion using the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System.
This is a prospective, multi-center open-label single arm post-market study where the purpose is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the market approved Spinal Simplicity Minuteman G5 MIS Fusion Plate and bone graft material in patients with degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine resulting in chronic low back pain with lower extremity symptoms and concurrent neurogenic claudication. The indication for the device under study is degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine resulting in back pain with lower extremity symptoms and neurogenic claudication.

This is a randomized prospective study that will compare the use of narcotics in a control group of non-injected patients with a treatment arm of patients injected intra-operatively with a ropivacaine, morphine, and epinephrine cocktail. The investigators hypothesize that this treatment will reduce narcotic use in patients during their hospital stay, and possibly decrease the length of their stay in the hospital.The investigators also hope their pain will be decreased as displayed by their multi-daily Clinically Aligned Pain Assessment (CAPA) score.
