Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Rate of bone fusion
Assessment of the rate of bone fusion via Computerized Tomography (CT)/x-ray based on evidence of continuous bone bridging from the superior to the inferior vertebral body at the target level.
Secondary outcomes
Quality of Life Questionnaire: Oswestry Disability Index
A questionnaire used to measure a patient's permanent functional disability scored 0-4, (no disability) to 35-50, (completely disabled).
Quality of Life Questionnaire: Neck Disability Index (NDI)
A self-reported questionnaire to determine how pain affects everyday life and assess the level of disability and scored from 0 (no disability) to 50 (complete disability).
Quality of Life Questionnaire: Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
A self rated pain scale from 0 (no pain) to 10 (worst imaginable pain)
Quality of Life Questionnaire: Short Form 36 (SF-36)
A Questionnaire used to measure the impact of clinical and social interventions using eight scaled scores; the scores are weighted sums of the questions in each section. Scores range from 0 - 100. Lower scores = more disability, higher scores = less disability
