About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomised Study Comparing Postoperative Treatment After Surgical Decompression for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis. With and Without Immobilisation in an Orthosis

The aim of the study is to assess the benefit of wearing a lumbar orthosis after surgery for spinal stenosis. It will be evaluated if a post-surgery immobilization for 6 weeks with a lumbar orthosis reduces early recurrence, increases walking distance, decreases significantly faster pain and pain medication after surgery

Read the detailed description

Spinal stenosis and orthoses The study situation in this regard is very poor, high-quality level 1 studies are not available.

A study by Prateepavanich et al. from 2001 shows advantages in the therapy with lumbar orthoses in neurogenic spinal claudication in the context of conservative therapy (9). Regarding postoperative prescription, expert opinions have long diverged (10). Nevertheless, in a survey of North American spine surgeons, over 60% reported prescribing an orthosis postoperatively (11).

2 Aim of the study

The aim of this study is to show that patients after surgical decompression for lumbar spinal stenosis and patients after surgical sequestrectomy benefit from temporary postoperative immobilization using a lumbar orthosis.

To show that postoperative therapy with a lumbar orthosis prolongs walking distance and reduces early recurrence.

It will be shown that postoperative pain decreases significantly faster and thus pain medication can be reduced faster early postoperatively.

What is being measured

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

  1. Recurrence rate or reherniation/restenosis by means of MRI results

    symptomatic reduction of Walking distance

    Measured: at 104 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Pain and Disability Index

    Visual analog scale (VAS) (visual analog scale of 0-10, 0 means no pain, 10 means extreme pain, we expect better outcome with Lombastab), Oswestry Disability Questionaire (german version scale of 0-50, 0 means no impairment at all, 50 means highest possible impairment, we expect lower impairment due to Lombastab)

    Measured: At 0, 2, 6, 12, 24, 52 and 104 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Device : Lombastab immo. wear for 6 weeks post-surgery the Lombastab Immo in people with Spinal Stenosis, run by SRH Gesundheitszentrum Bad Herrenalb at 1 site in Germany.

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 4 inclusion and 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Apr 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Uwe Spetzger, Prof (+497219740, uwe.spetzger@klinikum-karlsruhe.de), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence rate or reherniation/restenosis by means of MRI results (time frame: at 104 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 5 Apr 2022.
