Spine Surgery's hidden aftermath: tracking swallowing and voice troubles
NCT ID NCT07713693
First seen Jul 20, 2026 · Last updated Jul 21, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tracks how often swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) and voice changes (dysphonia) happen after anterior cervical spine surgery — a common procedure to treat a narrow spinal canal. Researchers will follow 36 patients for one year after surgery, using questionnaires and a camera test that looks at the throat during swallowing. The goal is to better understand these complications and help improve recovery.
