CairoAges 18 years+ - NCT07610655Recruiting
Nerve Stimulation to Aid Recovery After Spine Surgery
This study tests whether a small device that gently stimulates a nerve in your neck can help you recover better after lumbar spine surgery. The device may help reduce confusion, depression, and other thinking problems that sometimes occur after surgery.
