DEGENERATIVE DISC DISEASE

This study tested a special bone graft material containing stem cells, called Osteocel Plus, to see how well it helps spinal bones grow together after fusion surgery for severe back pain. Researchers followed 28 patients with degenerative disc disease for two years after surgery …

This study tested a special bone graft material containing stem cells, called Osteocel Plus, for use in spinal fusion surgery. The goal was to see if it helps the bones in the spine join together solidly after surgery for severe, long-term back pain. Researchers followed 19 patie…

This study tested a new gel implant system for people with long-term lower back pain caused by worn-out spinal discs. It involved 35 adults whose pain hadn't improved after at least six months of standard treatments like medication or physical therapy. The main goals were to see …

This study looked at the safety and performance of two spinal implants (MLX and XLX ACR) used in back surgery. It followed 109 adults who had surgery for conditions like degenerative disc disease or scoliosis. Researchers tracked complications, pain levels, and whether the bones …

This study looked back at medical records and collected new data to see how well a biologic material called NMP™ worked when used during spine fusion surgery for lower back pain from worn-out discs. It involved 53 patients who had the surgery and checked a year later to see if th…

This study tested a new, less invasive spinal fusion surgery for people with severe, long-term lower back pain from degenerative disc disease. The procedure used a smaller incision and special implants to stabilize the spine. Researchers followed 77 patients for two years to see …

This study tested a specific spinal implant device used in fusion surgery for people with painful, worn-out discs in their lower back. It followed 25 patients for two years after surgery to see how safe the device was and if it successfully helped the bones fuse together. The mai…

This study tested a special bone graft material containing stem cells, called Osteocel Plus, during a specific type of spinal fusion surgery (XLIF). The goal was to see if this material could help the spine bones fuse together solidly and potentially faster than other standard gr…

This study tested the safety and performance of the Modulus ALIF system, a medical device used in spinal fusion surgery. Researchers followed 123 patients with degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, or spinal stenosis who received the implant. They checked for complication…

This early-stage study tested the safety and initial effectiveness of a new cell-based injection (IDCT) for people with chronic low back pain caused by a worn-out spinal disc. 38 participants with long-term pain that didn't improve with standard care received either one of two do…

This study tested the safety and performance of a new 3D-printed titanium implant used during a specific type of spinal fusion surgery. It involved 36 adults with degenerative back conditions like disc disease or scoliosis. Researchers checked for complications, used CT scans to …

This study tested the safety and performance of a new spinal implant system for people with degenerative back conditions like disc disease or scoliosis. 75 participants had surgery with the implant and were followed for two years to see if their bones fused properly and if their …

This study compared two methods for managing pain after spinal fusion surgery. It tested whether a specific nerve block given before surgery or a large dose of local numbing medicine given at the end worked better than standard care alone. Researchers measured patients' pain leve…
