U.S., Feb. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT06806969) titled 'Artificial Intelligence Enabled Decision Support for Selection of Patients for Lumbar Spine Surgery' on Jan. 14.

Brief Summary: Background One third of patients operated for lumbar disc herniation (LDH) or spinal stenosis (LSS) do not achieve substantial improvement. Studies indicate that well informed shared decision making (SDM) can improve the selection to surgery, and thus the outcomes. Numerous algorithms for outcome prediction have therefore been developed, and some use artificial intelligence (AI). Most are trained on small datasets, few are accurate, all are stand-alone or web-based applications not integrated in the electron...
