Kyphosis clinical trials at UCSF

4 in progress, 3 open to eligible people

Kyphosis is a condition where the spine curves too much, making the back round. UCSF is studying the results of different surgeries for adults with complex spinal deformities. Some trials focus on less invasive surgeries to see how effective they are. Another trial collects information from several centers to better understand cervical spine surgery outcomes.

Showing trials for

  • Complex Adult Deformity Surgery (CADS)

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.

  • Complex Adult Spinal Deformity (CAD) Treated With Minimally Invasive Surgery

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Evaluate surgical treatment outcomes and identify best practice guidelines for complex adult spinal deformity (ASD) patients treated with minimally invasive approach, including radiographic and clinical outcomes, surgical and postoperative complications, risk factors for and revision surgery rates, and the role of standard work to improve patient outcomes and reduce surgical and postoperative complications.

  • Radiographic and Clinical Evaluation of Surgical Treatment for Cervical Deformity: A Multi-Center Study 2.0

    open to eligible people ages 18 years and up

    Multi-center, prospective, non-randomized study to evaluate outcomes of surgically treated patients with adult cervical spinal deformity.

  • Adult Spinal Deformity Outcomes Database Registry

    Sorry, in progress, not accepting new patients

    The clinical, radiographic, and HRQL outcomes will be compared in operative and nonoperative adult spinal deformity patients.
