BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05963815Recruiting
Spine surgery follow-up using online patient-reported questionnaires
This study looks at recovery after planned (elective) surgery for common lower-back (“lumbar”) spine problems like slipped discs, disc bulges, and narrowing of the spinal canal. You may be asked to complete online questionnaires, and the study uses your answers to understand symptoms and outcomes after surgery.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18–80 - NCT06000319Enrolling by invitation
NMP fibers for spine fusion surgery
This study tests a new material called NMP fibers used during spine fusion surgery to treat conditions like degenerative disc disease, spinal stenosis, or spondylolisthesis. The goal is to see how well it works for patients having fusion in the neck or lower back.
Jasper, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05366140Recruiting
Implanet Jazz spine fusion for adults needing thoracolumbar stabilization
This trial looks at using the Implanet Jazz system during spine fusion surgery for adults who need stabilization in the middle-to-lower back. It may help patients by improving how well the fused spine heals and stays in place.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–100 - NCT07348419Recruiting
Pain blocks after single-level lumbar disc surgery
This study compares two types of pain-blocking injections (Quadro-Iliac vs Thoracolumbar Interfascial Plane Block) to see which provides better pain relief after a single-level lumbar disc surgery. If you are having this surgery, the trial may help you have less pain and use fewer pain medicines afterwards.
SamsunAges 18–70 - NCT05856539Recruiting
Numbing nerve block during minimally invasive low back surgery
This trial tests whether an “ESP block” (a numbing injection near the spine) can help control pain during minimally invasive low back fusion surgery. If you’re having this surgery, the goal is to improve comfort and reduce pain medicine needs.
New York, New YorkAges 18–80 - NCT05986370Recruiting
Study on back pain and spinal manipulation
This trial tests whether spinal manipulation therapy (a type of hands-on treatment) can help people with long-term low back pain. It also compares their results to healthy volunteers of the same age and sex.
Trois-Rivières, QuebecAges 18–60 - NCT06704906Recruiting
Spine fusion surgery with a new bone graft material
This study tests a new bone graft material (Fibergraft BG Putty) used with a special screw system (Viper Prime) during spine fusion surgery. It is for adults with lower back problems who need 1 to 3 vertebrae fused, and who are not smokers or have a very low bone density.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06950853Recruiting
Spinal surgery study using endoscopy to avoid fusion
This trial tests a less invasive spinal surgery using an endoscope (a small camera) to treat certain spine problems without fusing bones together, which may help you recover faster. It is for adults with specific types of back or leg pain from conditions like a failed previous fusion, a slipped vertebra, or a curved spine with narrowing.
