Study Description

Brief Summary

An evaluation of the incidence of complications resulting from far lateral spine surgery utilizing the K2M RAVINE® Lateral Access System (RAVINE) with ALEUTIAN® Lateral Interbody Spacer System versus literature reported results for the NuVasive XLIF® system (XLIF) in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase

    Detailed Description

    An evaluation of the incidence of complications resulting from far lateral spine surgery utilizing the K2M RAVINE® Lateral Access System (RAVINE) with ALEUTIAN® Lateral Interbody Spacer System versus literature reported results for the NuVasive XLIF® system (XLIF) in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at L2-S1 requiring surgical intervention at one or two contiguous levels. Safety will be assessed by the following: 1.) Evaluation of all adverse events including device related, procedure related and additional serious adverse events; 2.) Additional surgical intervention at the operative site including the need for removals, revisions, re-operations or supplemental fixation required to modify the device; and 3.) The incidence and severity of any psoas muscle injury, genital femoral nerve injury and lumbar plexus injury will be determined for all patients. Supplemental fixation of any kind may be included as long as the procedure is completed via a minimally invasive approach.

    Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Change From Baseline [24 months]

      Evaluation of the change of the Back VAS, Hip VAS and the Leg VAS at the 24 month post-operative visit as compared to pre-op time periods. Information on all reports of pain/numbness/tingling and the location of symptoms were captured and evaluated. VAS scale ranged from 0 - 10cm with the 10cm accounting for the highest level of pain.

    2. Number of Patients With Adverse Events AEs) [Operative to 24 month]

      The evaluation of all adverse events including device related, procedure related and additional serious adverse events.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in Pain/Dysesthesia Score From Baseline (Pre-Operative) [time of discharge, an average of 4.5 days, up to 8 weeks post-operatively, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months]

      Neurological evaluation of the patient, with specific evaluation of psoas muscle weakness, radiating radicular pain, knee extension weakness, dorsiflexion weakness, plantarflexion weakness and anterior thigh numbness was performed using Patient symptom Questionnaire (0-100mm analog scale with 100mm being the highest pain/weakness/numbness)

    2. Change in Oswestry Disability Index From Baseline (Pre-Operative) [time of discharge, an average of 4.5 days, up to 8 weeks post-operatively, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months]

      The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is a validated instrument including items that relate to subjective symptomatology and activities of daily living (pain intensity, personal care, lifting, walking, sitting, standing, sex life, traveling). This patient-reported outcome measure is a 10 item questionnaire that evaluates disability and functional impairment associated with back problems. Each item is scored from O up to 5, with higher scores corresponding to greater disability. A total ODI score is determined by adding the scores of the individual questions and dividing that total by the maximum possible score (i.e., 50 if all questions are answered) to yield a percentage. Therefore, the ODI score ranges from 0% to 100%.

    3. Change in Health-Related Quality of Life From Baseline (Pre-op) [time of discharge, an average of 4.5 days, up to 8 weeks post-operatively, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months]

      Health-related quality of life was evaluated in all study subjects using the SF-12v2 Health Survey. This shortened and simplified version of the SF-36 makes the questionnaire less ambiguous for patients. It has a self-administered form that makes it easy to read and complete, and that reduces missing responses. The physical and mental component summary scales, referred to as PCS-12 and MCS-12 were evaluated against published normative values and a 15% improvement in these scores was used as an assessment of success. In calculating the true value of a treatment, the scores from the SF-12v2 were converted into a utility index (SF-6D), which considered not only how many years a medical intervention could have added to a patient's life, but also the quality of that life. Use of the SF-6D did not expand the questions administered to the patients. The scale ranged from 0-100% with 100% being the best quality of life.

    4. Radiographic Assessments [12 mo to 24 mo]

      Quantitative and qualitative radiographic assessment of the pre and post-operative AP, and Lateral, Flexion/Extension images were performed. Radiographic and qualitative assessments performed include: Device Condition: looks at both the cage inside the vertebrae and the hardware outside the vertebrae. It looks at whether or not the device is intact or not (subsidence or migration) Fusion/Non-fusion: whether bone has grown within the space between the spinal vertebrae. If fusion occurs, it results in Bony Bridging

    5. Patient Satisfaction [12 month and 24 month]

      At the 12 month and 24 month follow-up visits, subjects were asked whether they were satisfied with the outcome of their surgery (Yes/No) and whether they would repeat the operation (Yes/No).

    6. Odom's Criteria [24 months]

      At the 24 month follow-up visit, the Investigator rated the clinical disposition of each study subject according to Odom's Criteria as follows: Excellent: all pre-operative symptoms relieved, able to carry out daily occupations without impairment. Good: minimum persistence of pre-operative symptoms, able to carry out daily occupations without significant interference. Fair/Satisfactory: relief of some pre-operative symptoms but physical activity is significantly limited. Poor: symptoms or signs unchanged or worse.

    7. Surgery Time [During operation.]

      The length of the surgical procedure from the initial incision to final closure were captured from the Anesthesia Record.

    8. Anesthesia Time [During operation.]

      The length of time the patient is under anesthesia were captured from the Anesthesia Record.

    9. Estimated Blood Loss [During Operation]

      The amount of blood loss over the entire length of the surgery, documented on the Anesthesia Record, was captured.

    10. Number of Participants With Abnormal Neuromonitoring System Results [During operation]

      Abnormal result(s) of neuromonitoring systems (Train of Four, Electromyography (EMG), Triggered EMG, Somato Sensory Evoked Potential (SSEP) and Motor Evoked Potential (MEP)) utilized during the surgery were captured.

    11. Length of Hospital Stay [From admission to discharge]

      The length of hospital stay from the date of hospital admission to the date of discharge was calculated.

    12. Change in Work/School Status Compared to Baseline [Pre-operative to 24 months]

      The ability to and the time it takes for the subject to be cleared to return to work/school from the date of surgery was documented.

    13. Change in Use of Narcotics Post-Surgery Compared to Baseline [Pre-operative to 24 months]

      The types and dosages of any narcotics taken by the patient post-surgery were documented.

    4. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change in Oswestry Disability Index From Baseline (Pre-Operative)
    Description The Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) is a validated instrument including items that relate to subjective symptomatology and activities of daily living (pain intensity, personal care, lifting, walking, sitting, standing, sex life, traveling). This patient-reported outcome measure is a 10 item questionnaire that evaluates disability and functional impairment associated with back problems. Each item is scored from O up to 5, with higher scores corresponding to greater disability. A total ODI score is determined by adding the scores of the individual questions and dividing that total by the maximum possible score (i.e., 50 if all questions are answered) to yield a percentage. Therefore, the ODI score ranges from 0% to 100%.

    Title Change in Health-Related Quality of Life From Baseline (Pre-op)
    Description Health-related quality of life was evaluated in all study subjects using the SF-12v2 Health Survey. This shortened and simplified version of the SF-36 makes the questionnaire less ambiguous for patients. It has a self-administered form that makes it easy to read and complete, and that reduces missing responses. The physical and mental component summary scales, referred to as PCS-12 and MCS-12 were evaluated against published normative values and a 15% improvement in these scores was used as an assessment of success. In calculating the true value of a treatment, the scores from the SF-12v2 were converted into a utility index (SF-6D), which considered not only how many years a medical intervention could have added to a patient's life, but also the quality of that life. Use of the SF-6D did not expand the questions administered to the patients. The scale ranged from 0-100% with 100% being the best quality of life.

    Title Radiographic Assessments
    Description Quantitative and qualitative radiographic assessment of the pre and post-operative AP, and Lateral, Flexion/Extension images were performed. Radiographic and qualitative assessments performed include: Device Condition: looks at both the cage inside the vertebrae and the hardware outside the vertebrae. It looks at whether or not the device is intact or not (subsidence or migration) Fusion/Non-fusion: whether bone has grown within the space between the spinal vertebrae. If fusion occurs, it results in Bony Bridging

    Adverse Events

    Time Frame Operative to 24+ Months
    Adverse Event Reporting Description Any untoward medical occurrence in a subject undergoing surgery in this trial which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this intervention. An AE can, therefore, be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of the one of the devices. Any AE that occurs during the subject's participation in the study will be recorded on the Adverse Event case report form.
    Arm/Group Title Participants With Adverse Events
    Arm/Group Description Participants were evaluated for all adverse events including device related, procedure related, and additional serious adverse events. 9 of the 30 SAE participants did not experience a non-SAE events. The other 21 participants had events in both categories. The study did not establish a frequency threshold, therefore, all AEs are listed.
