Testing a brain/spine monitoring method during spinal surgery
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial compares a new “NeuroVision” monitoring approach with the standard method while you have spinal surgery for worn-out (degenerative) problems. The goal is to see if NeuroVision helps surgeons detect nerve-related issues earlier and safer during the operation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for a first-time spinal surgery on one or more spinal levels for degenerative (wear-and-tear) problems
- Your condition is one of these: myelopathy, radiculopathy, myeloradiculopathy, central or foraminal stenosis, herniated disc, degenerative disc disease, spondylosis, or bone spurs
- You can understand the study and sign informed consent
- You do not have an active (current) infection
- You do not have a current or past history of cancer

This study tests whether special nerve monitoring during a low-back fusion helps make surgery safer and the results easier to judge. It’s for people having a specific type of low-back fusion on one or two levels.
This trial tests a way to improve how signals from the brain are monitored during surgery to protect important areas. It might help ensure the surgery is safer and more precise.
This study records video of spine surgeries to see if a computer system can track the movements without special markers. It may help make future surgeries safer and more precise.
This study records what happens when doctors use spinal cord monitoring and stimulation during brain or spinal cord surgery. It may help improve how safely these procedures are performed in the future.
This study tests if using nerve monitoring during prostate removal surgery can help protect nerves. It may help men having surgery for prostate cancer avoid side effects like incontinence or erectile dysfunction.
This study tests whether using electrical stimulation during neck surgery can help improve how the brain and spinal cord process sensory information. It may offer new ways to help people with stroke-related weakness.
