Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the In-Space compared to the X STOP Interspinous Process Distraction (IPD) device ("X STOP") for the treatment of patients experiencing intermittent neurogenic claudication secondary to moderate degenerative lumbar stenosis at one or two lumbar levels.

Primary Outcome

The questionnaire quantifies severity of symptoms, physical function characteristics, and patient's satisfaction. The scale relates to symptoms over the past month. The result is expressed as a percentage of the maximum possible score. The score increases with worsening disability. An individual patient treatment will be considered a success if they meet at least two of three components defined as an improvement of ≥ 0.5 as compared to preoperative score for the symptom severity and physical fun
