Testing a new surgical tool for spine surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares a new surgical tool, the Surgify Halo, to a standard tool used in spine surgery. It aims to see which is easier to use and performs better for removing bone during spine surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a 3D scanner that maps your spine during surgery to help the surgeon work more accurately. It is for people already planning spine surgery where the back bones are exposed.
This study tests if a special irrigation solution can lower bacteria levels in the surgical area during spinal fusion surgery with implants. It is intended for adults having their first planned spinal fusion surgery.
This study compares a new computer-guided system (PathKeeper) to the usual method for placing screws in the spine during open surgery. It aims to see if the new system makes screw placement more accurate.
This trial compares a new carbon fiber screw system to standard titanium screws for people needing spinal fusion surgery to treat degenerative spine conditions. It aims to see which type of screw works better for pain and stability.
This trial studies specific neck (cervical) spine implants used during surgery for degenerative disc disease or neck instability, along with a particular kind of bone grafting and supporting hardware. It may help patients by testing whether these devices and the planned fusion approach work safely and effectively in real-world surgery.
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.
