Clinical Trial: Patient Reported Recovery of Muscle Strength After Surgery for Cervical Radiculopathy, Impact of Duration and Severity on Recovery.

U.S., Sept. 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07825545) titled 'Patient Reported Recovery of Muscle Strength After Surgery for Cervical Radiculopathy, Impact of Duration and Severity on Recovery.' on Sept. 13.

Brief Summary: DCR surgery is generally recommended for patients with severe or progressive limb paresis. The incidence of motor weakness reported to be up to 70%, with a varying recovery rate up to 90%, and the prospects of recovery is most likely dependent on paresis severity and duration. Operative treatment could facilitate earlier recovery, but the evidence is weak and based on smaller and heterogeneous DCM/DCR populations. There is also a lack of knowledge concerning timing of surge...
