What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Revision surgeries

    All cause revisions, including medical and surgical complications.

    Measured: 1 year post-surgery

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Clinical performance of instrumentation technique

    instrumentation time per screw, total surgery time, excluding: exposure and closure time, Surgeon-specific surgical techniques that impact surgery time

    Measured: Day of surgery

  2. Neuromonitoring events

    Measured: Day of surgery

  3. Hypoplastic pedicles

    <4 mm in diameter

    Measured: Day of surgery

  4. Improvement of radiographic and health-related quality of life metrics

    post-operative radiographs and SRS22 questionnaire

    Measured: up to 10 years post-operative

  5. Length of convalescence

    Length of hospital stay, destination at discharge, time to return to normal activities

    Measured: within 2 years of surgery

  6. Clinical Outcomes as measured on plain radiographs

    Curvature correction and shoulder balance

    Measured: 2 years

  7. Radiation Exposure

    Reading of exposure in seconds (and KvP, if available) from C-arm or other imaging system used in the operating room.

    Measured: Day of surgery

  8. Ratio of executed vs. planned screws

    Number of screws planned to be robotically inserted and manually inserted instead, and cause.

    Measured: Day of surgery

  9. Pedicle screw instrumentation accuracy

    Accuracy will be quantified in millimeters and scored using the Gertzbein-Robbins classification, based on post-operative CTs that are clinically necessary for the management of the patient.

    Measured: Within 1 year of surgery, if indicated by surgeon and clinically necessary

  10. Surgical complications

    Implant-related durotomy, infection requiring surgery, excessive blood loss, air emboli, new neural deficits, implant failure

    Measured: Within first year from day of surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Scoliosis, run by Mazor Robotics at 4 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Administrative). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Revision surgeries (time frame: 1 year post-surgery). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02084264, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Aug 2019.
