- Detailed Description
Objectives The primary objective is changes in spine and lower limb pain following a laser-assisted neural decompression (LAND) procedure for the treatment of lumbar, thoracic, or cervical spine and/or extremity pain. Secondary objectives will be changes in quality of life, prescription pain medication use, and patient satisfaction with procedure outcomes.
Design and Outcomes This is a prospective observational study to determine the degree to which a laser-assisted neural decompression (LAND) procedure relieves spine and extremity pain. Subjects will have elected to have the procedure are part of their standard of care in treating their spine and/or leg pain. Subjects will complete a baseline survey and two follow-up surveys at 3-months and 12-months after their procedure date.
Interventions and Duration There will be no study intervention. Subjects will only be monitored and evaluated for pre- and post-operative pain, quality of life, satisfaction, and medication use. Subjects will be followed for 12 months following their LAND procedure.
Sample Size and Population This study will last for 4 years starting February 10, 2020. There will be no maximum subject population size. We aim for a minimum population size of 1,500 in order to give statistical significance with results.
