Idiopathic Scoliosis
Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Spondylolisthesis
Congenital Scoliosis
Neuromuscular Scoliosis
Registration Number
NCT05071144
Lead Sponsor
Boston Children's Hospital
Brief Summary

Creation of a pediatric robotic spine surgery registry will allow for data collection and analysis on the coupled use of robotics and navigation, as well as patient-specific rods in pediatric spine deformity surgery across participating study institutions. Eventually, an educational and informative framework for this technology will be established.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
proportion of pedicle screws within 2 mm of cortical breachTime of surgery

The proportion of pedicle screws within 2 mm of cortical breach when assessed on intraoperative O-arm scans and postoperative CT scans (when applicable).

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Estimated blood loss (EBL)Time of surgery

EBL during surgery will be reported by the surgeon or extracted from surgical documentation.

radiation dose to patient and surgeon per screwTime of surgery

Radiation dose to patient and surgeon per screw based on the following imaging studies when performed: preoperative CT scan, intraoperative O-arm scans, and fluoroscopy.

Scoliosis Research Society (SRS-30) QuestionnaireBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

Questionnaires will be completed by both the patient and caregiver based on their appropriate diagnosis (i.e. idiopathic, congenital, spondylolisthesis, etc.).

Early Onset Scoliosis 24-Item Questionnaire (EOSQ-24)Baseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

Questionnaires will be completed by both the patient and caregiver based on their appropriate diagnosis (i.e. idiopathic, congenital, spondylolisthesis, etc.).

Caregiver Priorities & Child Health Index of Life with Disabilities (CP Child)Baseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

Questionnaires will be completed by both the patient and caregiver based on their appropriate diagnosis (i.e. idiopathic, congenital, spondylolisthesis, etc.).

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Physical ActivityBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Self-reported capability rather than actual performance of physical activities. This includes the functioning of one's upper extremities (dexterity), lower extremities (walking or mobility), and central regions (neck, back), as well as instrumental activities of daily living."

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Emotional Distress - AnxietyBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Fear (fearfulness, panic), anxious misery (worry, dread), hyperarousal (tension, nervousness, restlessness), and somatic symptoms related to arousal (racing heart, dizziness)."

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Emotional Distress - Depressive SymptomsBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Negative mood (sadness, guilt), views of self (self- criticism, worthlessness), and social cognition (loneliness, interpersonal alienation), as well as decreased positive affect and engagement (loss of interest, meaning, and purpose)."

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Physical Function - MobilityBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Activities of physical mobility such as getting out of bed or a chair to activities such as running."

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Pain - InterferenceBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Consequences of pain on relevant aspects of one's life. This includes the extent to which pain hinders engagement with social, cognitive, emotional, physical, and recreational activities."

Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Peer RelationshipsBaseline, 6 Months, 1 Year, 2 Years, and 5 Years

"Quality of relationships with friends and other acquaintances."

Total operative costTime of surgery

Capital expenses associated with the equipment and software, preoperative planning time, surgical time, and costs for revision surgery caused by screw malposition.

Improvement to spinopelvic alignment with PSRBaseline, Predicted plan, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years

Spinopelvic alignment parameters including pelvic tilt, pelvic incidence, lumbar lordosis, thoracic kyphosis and sagittal vertical axis

Operative timeTime of surgery

Data collection on time related to robotics-navigation, including registration, screw planning, screw placement, and total time related to platform use defined as the beginning of registration to last screw placement.
