Doctors track spine surgery patients for a decade to find best operating position

NCT ID NCT04839783

Summary

This study aimed to observe how a patient's position on the operating table during spine fusion surgery affects their long-term recovery. Researchers followed 234 adults with spinal conditions for up to 10 years after surgery, tracking their pain, physical function, and whether they needed a second surgery. The goal was to gather information to help improve future surgical techniques, not to test a new treatment.
