Proprio Spine Measurement Tool

Study Purpose

This study will prospectively collect data to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel intraoperative spinal measurement system to assist the surgeon with intraoperatively achieving pre-planned alignment-related parameters to the patient's spine. The study will also collect outcomes data to determine if achievement of these spinal alignment-related parameters result in satisfactory outcomes and if it reduces the rate of secondary surgeries. Objectives.Primary: To evaluate the effectiveness of a novel intraoperative spinal measurement system to assist the surgeon with achieving the surgeon's preplanned alignment-related parameters intraoperatively. Secondary: To determine if there is a correlation between 1) achievement of preoperative planned alignment-related parameters intraoperatively, and 2) outcomes. Hypothesis.The application of the intraoperative spinal measurement tool for patients undergoing spinal fusion surgery will improve the surgeon's ability to achieve pre-planned alignment-related parameters intraoperatively and doing so will provide improved outcomes.

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.

Interventional
Eligible Ages 18 Years and Over
Gender All
More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  • - Adult patients aged 18 years or older at the time of surgery.
  • - Type of Surgery: Consecutively scheduled patients where the measurement system will be used who will have thoracolumbosacral posterior spine surgery that includes spinal instrumentation and fusion and that consent to the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • - Patients treated for traumatic injury (penetrating injuries, etc.) - Incarcerated persons.
  • - Pregnant females.
  • - Any patient current in another trial for a new implant or technique.
  • - Non-Spine Related Surgeries: Patients who had surgeries for reasons other than spine-related conditions (even if they incidentally involved the spine) - Patients having additional surgery occurring concurrently with spine surgery.
- Patients ineligible for surgery

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.

NCT07023393
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.

Additional Details

Patient reported outcomes data will be collected on two separate forms- the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and the SF-36. The ODI has been widely used since its development in 1980 and has been viewed as effective for measuring disability in daily living associated with low back pain4. The SF-36 is the most used patient reported outcomes measure used both generically as well as specifically for low back pain, and it consists of both a mental as well as physical assessment5. Study data will be compared to historical literature data. The intraoperative spinal measurement system to be used is the Paradigm TM System by Proprio. Patients will fill out ODI and SF-36 and will have a postoperative standing long x-ray or EOS at regular follow-up intervals (typically 6w, 3m, 6m, 12m, 24m).

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: Thoracolumbosacral posterior spine surgery using intraoperative measurement system

To evaluate the effectiveness of a novel intraoperative spinal measurement tool to assist the surgeon with achieving preoperatively planned alignment-related parameters during surgery. Patients may also be included when the surgeon uses another system or method for placement of the implants (i.e., other navigation system, robot, fluoroscopy, etc.) but also wants to utilize the measurement system. The data will be analyzed as a pool and stratified according to level and # of levels and other demographic and operative data to determine if there are differences.

Interventions

Device: - Intraoperative spinal measurement system

The design is a prospective study to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel intraoperative spinal measurement tool to assist the surgeon with achieving preoperatively planned alignment-related parameters during surgery.
