Summary

This study is following 50 people who have or will receive the Synergy Disc, an artificial disc for the neck, to treat pain from degenerative disc disease. Researchers are measuring pain levels and neck function over 12 months, and checking for any device-related problems. The goal is to see if the disc is a safe and effective way to manage symptoms.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Synergy Cervical Disc (artificial disc implant)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that the Synergy Disc is a safe and effective option for treating neck and arm pain from degenerative disc disease.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-site observational study, not a randomized trial. Results may not apply to everyone, and there is always a risk of device-related complications.
