Summary

This study followed 145 people who received the Simplify Cervical Artificial Disc to treat neck problems caused by worn-out discs. Researchers checked if the disc was still working safely after 5 years, looking for pain improvement, device failures, or need for more surgery. The goal was to confirm the disc's long-term benefits and risks.
