A Retrospective Study to Examine the Effect of CMF Stimulation on Primary ACDF Patients

Study Purpose

A retrospective parallel group comparison study to support expansion of the indication of the company's FDA approved Spinalogicâ„¢ device to include the cervical spine. The SpinalogicTM device was initially approved by FDA as an adjunct to one- or two-level lumbar fusion (P910066/S011). It is a non-invasive bone growth stimulator (BGS) that generates a combined magnetic field (CMF) that has been proven to accelerate bone healing and fusion in the lumbar spine.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.

Trial Details

Trial ID:

This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.

NCT05101057
Phase

Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans.

Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data.

Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs.

Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.

Arms & Interventions

Arms

: Treated

Patients who underwent ACDF surgery and who received post surgical therapy with the SpinalogicTM Non-Invasive Bone Graft Stimulation Device.

: Control

Patients who underwent ACDF surgery and did not receive post surgical Bone Graft Stimulation.

Interventions

Device: - SpinalogicTM Bone Graft Stimulator

The SpinalogicTM is a portable, battery-powered, microprocessor-controlled, non-invasive bone growth stimulator. The device is currently approved and commercially indicated as an adjunct electrical treatment to primary lumbar spinal fusion surgery for one or two levels.
