NCT ID NCT07193758

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 30 times

Summary

This study surveyed 54 Belgian spinal surgeons to understand how they guide patients on returning to work after lumbar surgery for leg pain caused by nerve compression. The goal was to learn what advice they give, how long they recommend sick leave, and what makes it easier or harder to give that guidance. The results will help create better recommendations for surgeons to support their patients' recovery and return to daily life.
