About this study

Official title: Percutaneous Lumbar Discectomy : Evaluation of Patient Reported Outcomes, Aconomical Impact and Return to Work

This study aims to evaluate the clinical (pain) and functional (patient reported outcomes) efficacy of percutaneous discectomies under CT guidance to treat lumbar disc herniations resistant to conservative treatment and nerve root infiltrations.

The aim is also to evaluate the economic impact of the procedure, mainly through the length of hospitalization and the time to return to work.

Patients were evaluated initially before surgery and then at 1, 3 and 6 months.

Being tested
Percutaneous discectomies under CT
Medical subject headings
Intervertebral Disc Displacement

What is being measured

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

  1. Oswestry disability index

    Fonctionnal indicator of incapicity validated for patient suffering from spinal disorders

    Measured: before treatment

  2. Oswestry disability index

    Fonctionnal indicator of incapicity validated for patient suffering from spinal disorders

    Measured: At 1 month after treatment

  3. Oswestry disability index

    Fonctionnal indicator of incapicity validated for patient suffering from spinal disorders

    Measured: At 3 month after treatment

  4. Oswestry disability index

    Fonctionnal indicator of incapicity validated for patient suffering from spinal disorders

    Measured: At 6 month after treatment

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Visual analogic scale

    pain rating scale from 0 to 10 (worst is 10)

    Measured: Initially and at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month after the procedure

  2. Off work duration

    days before returning to work

    Measured: Initially and at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month after the procedure

  3. Hospitalization duration

    overnights hospitalization stays following the intervention

    Measured: Initially and at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month after the procedure

  4. use of pain killers

    frequency of the use of painkillers before and after the intervention

    Measured: Initially and at 1 month, 3 month and 6 month after the procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Lumbar Disc Herniation, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Nice 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 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Mar 2023. 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?

Oswestry disability index (time frame: before treatment). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT05772143, 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 16 Mar 2023.
