NCT ID NCT06369233
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a new gel, MegaShield-SP, to see if it prevents scar tissue after spine surgery better than an existing gel. About 80 adults aged 20-70 with a herniated disc or spinal stenosis will receive one of the two gels during surgery. Researchers will measure scar formation on MRI and track pain and disability over time.
