The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of AttraX® Putty as a bone graft substitute for autograft in instrumented posterolateral fusion of the thoracolumbar spine, in terms of efficacy and safety.
To determine long-term radiological and clinical outcome of a muscle-sparing surgical technique for posterior decompression of the cervical spinal cord (cervical split laminectomy).
Our first goal is collecting high quality raw EEG waves, - measured simultaneously on multiple locations of the brain - during a pharmacological reproducible anesthesia. The goal is to observe EEG patterns that allow the development of technology to…
The objective of this pilot study is to investigate the feasibility of using the Clip system in a human setting in creating an intracranial arteriotomy in a non-occlusive, sutureless fashion. Although the focus is on the technical success of the…
Determination of prognostic value of intraoperative growth hormone levels on postoperative curation for acromegaly in patients undergoing transsphenoidal resection of pituitary adenoma.
A study on extent-related outcome and complications for degenerative cervical spinal disease has not yet been performed. Results of this study may form the basis for a guideline regarding the extent of fixation in degenerative cervical spinal…
Primary Objectives:• show effectiveness of the SMSC instrument in 3D correction of the spine prior to placement of the implants.The hypothesis is that to achieve de-rotation of the spine without failure of the pedicle screws, de-rotation has to be…
The effect of the intervention on pain an regain of function in de affected extremity. This will be quantified in multiple questionnaires at baseline and three follow-up points, and by clinical evaulation of the hand function at baseline and two…
The primary objective is to avoid cognitive and affective side effects and maintain the beneficial motor effects by selective stimulation of the STN motor part. With the Select Stim project we want to improve the classical operation procedure, in…
The primary endpoint of this feasibility study is the technical success of positioning the SLIDE device to verify the speed and ease of use without unexpected device related adverse events. A technical success is defined that the SLIDE device was…
Does anesthesia itself or transition of anesthesia to an awake state and vice versa lead to changes in the lactate/pyruvate ratio, glucose, glycerol and glutamate concentration as measured in the brain interstitial fluid?Are the metabolic…
To accumulate data from patients who undergo spinal surgery for metastatic cancer, for the purposes of determining the difference in outcome between operations of varying complexity.
We hypothesize that ultrasound visualization of the distal sciatic nerve with subsequent ultrasound guided injection of a reduced amount of local anesthetic will result in shorter performance times, equivalent block quality (sensory and motor onset…
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the Freedom SCS (spinal cord stimulation) System for the treatment of chronic back and leg pain secondary to failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) over a follow-up period of one…
The primary objective of this study is to characterize the real-world outcomes of high rate spinal cord stimulation (HR-SCS) therapy as an aid in the management of chronic intractable pain of the trunk, including unilateral or bilateral pain…
To evaluate Multiple Independent Current Control (MICC) perception and sub-perception based programming at Dorsal Column (DC) targets and Dorsal Root (DR) targets for focal foot, knee, or groin pain relief.
To document patient outcomes including effectiveness for Boston Scientific Corporation*s VerciseTM CartesiaTM 16-contact Directional Lead (X/HX) with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Systems for the treatment of Parkinson*s Disease (PD).
In 2013 the Boston Scientific VERCISE System has obtained regulatory approval for use in the European Union, CE mark was granted for the treatment of intractable primary and secondary dystonia.The objective of the study is to compile characteristics…
This study will assess the applicability of robotic-assisted microsurgery in DNR after trauma.
In this project we aim to develop a safe and effective technique for ADC/FET-guided resection of IDH-wildtype glioblastoma and grade IV IDH-mutant astrocytoma. The safety concerns neurological deficits and time to start of adjuvant therapy, while…
