Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

To identify the current mortality rate for initial ALIF procedures. Establish/prove mortality rates for this operation have dropped in the past decade.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    Establish the mortality rate for "re-do" ALIF procedures [i.e., is it different than that of initial ALIF procedures and - if so - postulate that there are interventions that can be done in the pre-operative period to ameliorate that risk. This study is not designed to "prove" the latter hypothesis.]

    This is a single sample study where medical records will be searched by CPT codes for ALIF codes (e.g. 22558, 22585, 22845, etc.) by trained researcher(s) at participating Methodist facilities going back 5-10 years to see if 1500-3500 cases can be identified within that time period.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Establish/prove mortality rates [5 years]

      Establish mortality rates of patients for this operation have dropped in the past decade.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Establish the mortality rate for "re-do" ALIF procedures [ [5 years]

      Establish the patient's mortality rate, postulate that there are interventions that can be done in the pre-operative period to ameliorate that risk.

    Eligibility Criteria

    Criteria

    Ages Eligible for Study:
    18 Years to 85 Years
    Sexes Eligible for Study:
    All
    Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
    No
    Inclusion Criteria:
    • Patients > 17 years of age, patients having had ALIF procedures as defined by CPT codes at participating Methodist facilities during 2010-2020 targeted.
    Exclusion Criteria:
    • Pediatric patients (as defined by age <18 years old), pregnant women and incarcerated individuals. We do not anticipate any of these in an elective spine surgery group of patients. If they have emergency spine surgery it is normally not an ALIF.
