Timing of Rehabilitation Following Cervical Spinal Surgery in Degenerative Myelopathy
Feasibility of Early Post-operative Rehabilitation Following Cervical Spinal Surgery in Degenerative Myelopathy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether starting rehabilitation earlier after surgery can improve recovery and is feasible and acceptable for adults with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM) undergoing cervical spine surgery. The main question it aims to answer is:
Does starting rehabilitation earlier improve walking, balance, physical activity, quality of life, and nervous system function after surgery?
Researchers will compare participants who begin rehabilitation two weeks after surgery with participants who begin rehabilitation six weeks after surgery to see if earlier rehabilitation leads to better recovery outcomes and participation.
Participants will:
Be randomly assigned to begin rehabilitation either two weeks or six weeks after surgery.
Attend physical therapy sessions twice per week for eight weeks focused on strength, balance, and walking.
Complete assessments of walking ability, balance, physical activity, quality of life, and nervous system function over several months after surgery.
Provide feedback about their experience with the rehabilitation program, including satisfaction and any side effects or challenges related to participation.

|
Change from Admission to Study on the modified Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scale
Lasso di tempo: Study Admission and End of Study (12 weeks)
|
Score to evaluate the severity of degenerative cervical myelopathy, with scores ranging from 0 to 18; higher scores indicate more mild myelopathy
|
Study Admission and End of Study (12 weeks)
|
|
Change from Baseline in Motor-Evoked Potentials
Lasso di tempo: Baseline and End Rehabilitation (8 weeks following Baseline)
|
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) will be used and electromyography (EMG) will be recorded in lower extremity muscles; size of motor-evoked potentials will be measured
|
Baseline and End Rehabilitation (8 weeks following Baseline)
|
|
Change from Baseline in Hoffman Reflexes
Lasso di tempo: Baseline and End Rehabilitation (8 weeks following Baseline)
|
Hoffman reflexes will be elicited in the soleus muscle and electromyography (EMG) will be recorded; H:M ratios and rate-dependent depression will be measured.
