NCT ID:
NCT05945550
Brief Summary:
To identify the current mortality rate for initial ALIF procedures. Establish/prove mortality rates for this operation have dropped in the past decade.
Detailed Description:
Establish the mortality rate for "re-do" ALIF procedures \[i.e., is it different than that of initial ALIF procedures and - if so - postulate that there are interventions that can be done in the pre-operative period to ameliorate that risk. This study is not designed to "prove" the latter hypothesis.\]
This is a single sample study where medical records will be searched by CPT codes for ALIF codes (e.g. 22558, 22585, 22845, etc.) by trained researcher(s) at participating Methodist facilities going back 5-10 years to see if 1500-3500 cases can be identified within that time period.
