SPINAL DEFORMITY

This study tests whether pouring tranexamic acid (TXA), a drug that helps blood clot, directly into the surgical wound during spine surgery can reduce bleeding and the need for blood transfusions. About 252 adults with spinal injuries or deformities will be randomly assigned to r…

This study tests whether applying tranexamic acid directly into the surgical wound, in addition to giving it through an IV, can reduce bleeding and the need for blood transfusions in adults having extensive spine surgery. About 100 adults aged 18 to 80 with spinal deformity will …

This study is testing whether artificial intelligence can accurately diagnose spinal deformities like scoliosis by analyzing photos of a person's bare back. Researchers will enroll 2,500 participants with various spinal conditions and compare the AI's assessment to standard X-ray…

This study will follow 1,000 people receiving Medtronic spinal or cranial devices during routine surgery. Researchers will track outcomes like fusion success, pain relief, and device safety for up to two years. The goal is to gather real-world data on how these already-approved p…

This study is collecting information from 760 adults who receive ERISMA or Idys spine implants during surgery. Researchers will track complications, pain levels, and quality of life for two years after the procedure. The goal is to confirm the devices are safe and work well in ev…

This study looks at how adults with spinal deformities maintain balance while standing and walking. Researchers will use advanced imaging and motion analysis to understand muscle and joint compensation. The goal is to improve surgical planning and reduce complications. 265 partic…

This study is creating and testing new methods to measure balance and trunk strength in adults with spinal deformity. Researchers will compare 30 patients with healthy volunteers to build a first-of-its-kind database linking these measurements to spinal shape and muscle condition…
