Stem cell grafts tested in back surgery to improve healing

NCT ID NCT07187362

Summary

This study compared different materials used to help bones grow together during spinal fusion surgery for severe lower back pain. 119 patients having a one-level fusion were randomly assigned to receive either their own bone or one of several FDA-approved bone graft alternatives, including some containing stem cells. Researchers followed patients for over two years, using CT scans and pain questionnaires to see which material led to the best bone healing and pain relief.
