Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This clinical study is one of the Post market clinical follow-up measures that enables the manufacturer to monitor the clinical safety and performance of the Ennovate® Cervical system. The study enables a quick, but detailed implant documentation, which is of great interest for the current and future users of the internal fixation system targeted in this study. It includes the relevant outcomes to evaluate safety and efficacy of the implant system for various indications in trauma and degenerative disorders.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

All patients treated with the Ennovate® Cervical system in accordance with the indications given in the instructions for use: fractures, degenerative instability, post-trauma instability, tumors, degenerative cervical myelopathy

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient is minimum 18 years old
  • Informed Consent in the documentation of clinical and radiological results
  • Patient has indication according to Instructions for Use (IFU)
  • Patient is not pregnant

Exclusion Criteria:

Design Details

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.
Ennovate® Cervical
Alll patients which were treated with the Ennovate® Cervical system in accordance with the indications given in the instructions for use
Device: posterior stabilization for the cervical spine
The Ennovate® Cervical Spinal System is a posterior stabilization for the cervical and upper-thoracic spine. The implants are used for the posterior monosegmental and multisegmental stabilization of the occipitocervical junction and of the cervical and upper thoracic spine.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change of Pain
Time Frame: preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
Pain will be assessed by the patient using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) which states "0" at one end representing "no pain" and "100" at the opposite end representing "maximal/worst pain".
preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change of Quality of life
Time Frame: preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
In order to analyze the quality of life of the patients, the 5-dimension 5-level score of EuroQol Group (EQ-5D-5L) is used. The score is self-completed by the patient. The descriptive system comprises five dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels: no problems, slight problems, moderate problems, severe problems and extreme problems. The patient is asked to indicate his/her health state by ticking the box next to the most appropriate statement in each of the five dimensions. This decision results in a 1-digit number that expresses the level selected for that dimension. The digits for the five dimensions can be combined into a 5-digit number that describes the patient's health state.
preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
Change of Neurological status
Time Frame: preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
The Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) myelopathy score is a disease-specific and physician oriented system that mainly assesses the neurological status of the patient and enables surgeons to compare the changes in the neurological status of the patient before and after certain treatments. However, the JOA score does not include patients' satisfaction, disability, handicaps, or general health (physical and mental health), which can be affected by cervical myelopathy.
preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
Change of Disability
Time Frame: preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
The Neck Disability Index (NDI) is designed to measure neck-specific disability. The questionnaire has 10 items to measure patient-reported disability secondary to neck pain and activities of daily living including personal care, lifting, reading, headaches, concentration, work status, driving, sleeping and recreation and patients rate their status from 0 (best) to 5 (worst imaginable). Individual item responses are summed to a total score, where 0 points indicate no activity limitations and 50 points indicate complete activity limitation.
preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 12 months postoperatively
Bone fusion
Time Frame: at final follow-up 12 months postoperatively
After cervical stabilization fusion of the treated segment is aspired in most cases. The fusion status can be determined from radiographs (static or dynamic). Bony fusion can be characterized quantitatively by the fusion rate.
at final follow-up 12 months postoperatively
Cumulative number of side effects
Time Frame: throughout the follow-up up to 12 months postoperatively
Occurrence of complications potentially associated with the implanted devices can never be fully excluded during spinal surgery. In order to monitor potential complication and to identify so far unknown complications Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events deemed related to the investigational device are recorded.
throughout the follow-up up to 12 months postoperatively
