Study Summary

The OSTEOVUE™ Spine Dissector is a new ultrasonic energy device, specifically designed for soft tissue removal from vertebral surfaces. The aim of the present study is to compare blood loss in multilevel PSF surgeries in patients with adolescent scoliosis (idiopathic or neuromuscular) done with ED or with UD. Blood loss will be estimated by major intraoperative surgical Stage (1 and 2) and postoperatively (until discharge). Additionally, the study will assess the possible influence of the device use in secondary perioperative outcomes.

Primary Outcome

Estimated blood loss during intraoperative Stage 1, defined as the period from first incision to the first bone violation/cut (e.g., first pedicle screw drill); and intraoperative Stage 2, defined as the period from first bone violation/cut to last suture.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Ultrasonic Dissection (UD)
  • DEVICE Electrocautery Dissection (ED)
