Active clinical trials for "Spondylosis"

This is a single-arm post-market study in patients requiring lumbar fusion using allograft interbody spacer in conjunction with map3® Cellular Allogeneic Bone Graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD). This cohort study will enroll 80 patients total at up to 10 sites. After subjects have signed an informed consent, the baseline visit and examinations will be completed. Patients will be evaluated at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, and 24 month visit after surgery.

In this study, it was aimed to determine whether dry needling treatment applied to the trigger points in the trapezius muscle in patients with chronic neck pain due to cervical spondylosis makes an additional contribution to the treatment results of the physical therapy and rehabilitation program.

A randomized controlled trial was conducted on 72 diagnosed patients with cervical spondylosis at University of Lahore Teaching hospital. The study was completed within 9 months after the approval of synopsis. Patients who fulfill the inclusion criteria were identified by individual physiotherapist and were enrolled for particular study. Informed written consent was be taken by the patients and were randomly allocated into two groups. The total numbers of sessions were 12 (3 sessions per week). The study was single blinded. The assessor was unaware of the treatment given to both groups. Control group received only routine physical therapy. This includes thermotherapy, trans-cutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, neck isometrics and stretching that includes 12 sessions and three times per week. Experimental group received routine physical therapy along with breathing exercises. This includes thermotherapy, trans-cutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, neck isometrics and stretching that includes 12 sessions and three times per week. Baseline data was collected before first treatment then after 4th, 8th and 12th session. The outcome measures were neck pain, ROM, neck disability and quality of life and were analyzed by using SPSS 26 and then results and conclusion were drawn.

The purpose of this research is to determine if post-operative cognition will be better if the general anesthesia for surgery is done with an inhaled (gas through a breathing tube) or intravenous (medicine injected in the IV) general anesthetic technique.

DTRAX Graft is used to relieve nerve pressure in the neck in order to provide relief for Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease. This study is being conducted to determine the effectiveness of the graft, and to find out whether or not it provides better results or faster healing than traditional ways of performing surgery for Cervical Degenerative Disc Disease.

Every year, thousands of Canadians are diagnosed with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM), a form of non-traumatic injury caused by spinal cord compression in the neck. While DCM causes a range of symptoms, one of the most disabling is loss of hand dexterity. Surgical decompression is standard treatment for DCM, but reduced dexterity often remains. The investigators have developed a portable, easy-to-use dexterity assessment tool for measuring hand dexterity. Hand function is often assessed using tools incapable of measuring subtle changes in function, limiting a clinician's ability to monitor progression of or recovery from a disease over time. The hope is that if subtle changes in function are identified early, leading to an early DCM diagnosis and treatment, this may prevent patients from experiencing a greater loss of hand function. The goals of this study are to determine the relationship between dexterity and myelopathy severity, as well as to establish the validity and reliability of the dexterity tool. This will be done by assessing dexterity using the dexterity tool in DCM patients (to determine the relationship between disease severity and dexterity, and measure validity) and healthy participants (to establish reliability).

The objective of this study is to prospectively evaluate the performance of Integra's OsteoStrux Collagen Ceramic Scaffold combined with bone marrow aspirate as an adjunct for instrumented posterolateral spine fusion, as compared to local autograft.

Neck Pain caused by Cervical spondylosis (CS) is one of the most common health complaints. Despite its frequency as clinical problem worldwide, there are few evidence-based studies that document efficacy of therapies for neck pain. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of Yoga chikitsa (Yoga therapy) on pain and quality of life (QOL) in CS patients compared to usual care.

Aim of the study was to investigate the effect of Kinesio taping application on upper trapezius muscle after cervical spine surgery.

The purpose of this study is to determine if music therapy during interventional lumbar medial branch blocks for chronic lower back pain will lower pain scores and anxiety levels, while increasing patient desire for repeat procedure as well as patient satisfaction.
