About this study

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of the ARISTA AH for restoring hemostasis following a long segment posterior spinal fusion.

Read the detailed description

After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patients giving written inform consent will be included in the study during their preoperative visit. After eligibility criteria checking and based on their respective surgical indication, participants will be randomized in a single-blinded and stratified manner (participant only) in a 1:1 ratio to ARISTA-AH or no ARISTA-AH. The stratification process will consider the number of instrumented vertebra during each surgery (level 1: 5 to 8 vertebra; level 2: 9 or more instrumented vertebra).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Control GroupDevice

    During the surgical procedure, hemostasis will be achieved using the standard of care (electrocautery, pressure, ligature or any hemostatic agent).

  • ARISTADevice

    During the surgical procedure, hemostasis will be achieved using the standard of care (electrocautery, pressure, ligature or any hemostatic agent). Before surgical wound closure, the corresponding amount of ARISTA-AH will be applied to completely cover the bleeding site :

    • 5g for 5 to 8 instrumented vertebra
    • 10g fo 9 or more instrumented vertebra

What is being measured

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

  1. Blood loss within the first 24 hours after posterior spinal fusion

    Blood loss calculated in ml per number of instrumented vertebra

    Measured: 24 hours

Secondary outcomes (13)
  1. Blood loss within the first 6 hours after posterior spinal fusion

    Blood loss calculated in ml per number of instrumented vertebra

    Measured: 6 hours

  2. Blood loss within the first 48 hours after posterior spinal fusion

    Blood loss calculated in ml per number of instrumented vertebra

    Measured: 48 hours

  3. Total post-operative blood loss

    Cumulative blood loss observed until surgical drain removal

    Measured: 3 Days

  4. Estimated Blodd Loss (EBL)

    EBL are calculated by multiplying the perioperative difference of haemoglobin EHb (formula used: EHb = (Hb preop - Hb post-op)/Hb preop) by the patient's estimated blood volume (EBV = weight x F; F = 75 for adult males; F = 70 for adolescent males; F = 60 for females).

    EBL = EHb x EBV

    Measured: 7 Days

  5. Hidden Blood Loss (HBL)

    HBL is the difference of the estimated blood loss (EBL) with the amount of perioperative blood loss and the amount of transfusions:

    HBL = EBL - intraoperative blood loss + transfusion

    Measured: 7 Days

  6. Drain removal

    Delay between the date of initial surgery and the date of surgical drain removal

    Measured: 7 Days

  7. Detection of any early post-operative haematoma

    Every participant will have an early postoperative MRI (before hospital discharge) to detect the presence of any haematoma.

    The presence (yes/no), the size (cm2) and the gravity (symptomatic, asymptomatic) of the observed haematoma will be compared between the 2 groups

    Measured: 7 Days

  8. Improvement of back and leg pains at 3 months compared to preoperative scores

    Back and leg pain intensity self-report will be assessed before and after initial procedure for each patient (at 3 months) using a 0 to 10 visual analog scale (0: no pain ; 10: most imaginable pain).

    Measured: 3 months

  9. Assessment of the Oswestry Disability Index

    Change from baseline in self reported Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score at 3 months.

    Measured: 3 months

  10. Change in Patient's quality of life

    Change from baseline in self reported 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12) score at 3 months.

    Measured: 3 months

  11. Length of stay

    Length of stay is the delay between the date of admission and the date of discharge for each patient.

    Measured: 7 Days

  12. Detection of any haemostasis disorder

    Proportion of subjects with any of the following complications related to haemostasis condition: delay or healing disorders, post-operative wound infection, neurological disorders, surgical disorders or any other complication directly related to haemostasis dysfunction or the use of ARISTA-AH product.

    Measured: 3 Months

  13. Incidence of any serious adverse events

    Record of any intra and postoperative complications

    Measured: 3 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ARISTA in people with Hemostatics and Hemostasis, run by Polyclinique Bordeaux Nord Aquitaine at 1 site in France.

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 6 inclusion and 9 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Apr 2026. 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 France. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

Blood loss within the first 24 hours after posterior spinal fusion (time frame: 24 hours). 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 14 Apr 2026.
