Kyphosis clinical trials at UCSF
4 in progress, 3 open to eligible people
Kyphosis is a condition where the upper back is very curved. UCSF is conducting clinical trials to find the best surgical treatment for adults with spinal deformity, including minimally invasive surgery. The trials will look at using a new system to prevent failure in long spinal fusion procedures.
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.
