Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults over 18 treated for spinal conditions at the Bordeaux spine surgery department, who can provide informed consent and complete questionnaires.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not complete follow-up questionnaires or are not treated within the participating center may have limited direct benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
The study is a prospective, single-center observational effort conducted in the spine surgery department at University Hospital of Bordeaux. Over five years, it will enroll patients with degenerative, deformity, traumatic, infectious, or tumor-related spinal conditions and collect data on their health, reasons for consultation, pathology details, functional status, and treatments received using self-administered questionnaires. A three-year follow-up is planned to assess longer-term outcomes and shifts in practice patterns. Data will describe quarterly evolution of care practices and patient outcomes, without a centralized intervention beyond data collection.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could illuminate how spinal care practices evolve and identify opportunities to improve patient management and outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: Similar observational efforts have described practice variation and its impact, though this study is designed to document evolution over time in a specific center.
