Study Design: Retrospective study. Objective: We aim to determine the influence of preoperative Patient-Reported Outcome Measurement Information System Physical Function (PROMIS-PF) scores on perioperative and postoperative outcomes, latter determined through patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) degree achievement rates minimum clinically important difference (MCID) following single-level cervical disc replacement (CDR). Background: Several studies have examined relationship between...
Few studies have established the minimum clinically important difference (MCID) in patients undergoing minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) for physical function and pain.To establish MCID pain patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) MIS-TLIF through anchor- distribution-based methods using Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) as anchor.Ninety-eight primary with preoperative 1-year postoperative ODI scores were identified. was calculated methods. responders...
Retrospective review.We aim to elucidate the potential relationship between neck disability index (NDI) and outcomes following cervical disk replacement (CDR).The use of preoperative scores as predictors spine surgery has previously been studied, yet no literature published regarding its in CDR.A retrospective database a single orthopedic surgeon was searched for single-level CDR patients with NDI scores, excluding those trauma, infection, or malignancy. Patients were separated into 2...
Retrospective Review.
Introduction: Patients with a prolonged preoperative symptom duration (PSD) in the setting of cervical disk herniation (DH) may suffer inferior outcomes after surgical intervention. Comparison between anterior diskectomy and fusion (ACDF) versus arthroplasty (CDA) this at-risk population has not yet been conducted. Methods: undergoing ACDF or CDA for DH PSD > 180 days were selected. Six-week (6W) final follow-up (FF) patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) as well magnitude...
Retrospective review.
Study Design: Retrospective review. Objective: To examine the effect of baseline Veterans RAND-12 (VR-12) Mental Composite Score (MCS) on clinical outcomes in patients undergoing cervical disk replacement (CDR) for herniated disk. Background: Few studies spine surgery have evaluated impact preoperative VR-12 MCS postoperative CDR. Methods: Patients CDR were separated into 2 cohorts based standardized mean: MCS<50 (worse mental health) and MCS≥50 (better health). Patient-reported outcome...
Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Objective: To assess the impact of preoperative symptom duration (PSD) on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after minimally invasive (MIS) transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) for degenerative spondylolisthesis (DSpond). Background: A prolonged symptoms may implicate inferior long-term outcomes postsurgery. Prior studies recipients are limited by inclusion heterogeneous populations. Methods: single-surgeon registry was...
Study Design: Retrospective review. Objective: To assess the impact of Body Mass Index (BMI) on patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) after cervical disc replacement (CDR). Background: BMI may affect PROMs spine surgery. Methods: Primary CDR recipients for herniated disc(s) with <40 were retrospectively selected from a single-surgeon registry. Cohorts divided into non-obese (BMI <30) and obese ≥30). Intercohort in-hospital complication rates compared through independent samples t...
