Study Summary
This prospective study aims to investigate the effectiveness of bone stimulator therapy as adjunct treatment of spondylolysis in athletic populations. By evaluating its impact on pain reduction, functional improvement, osseous bony union and return-to-sport time, the investigators seek to provide valuable insights into the role of bone stimulation therapy as a potential treatment modality for this challenging condition.
Primary Outcome
This outcome will be evaluated via REDCap with a Return to Sport Questionnaire, which will ask what sport(s) participant played prior to injury, if they have returned to the sports they played prior to back injury, what level of sports they returned to (recreational, organized, professional), what level of play they have returned to (same as before injury, higher than before injury, or lower than before injury), and if they report that they did not return to sport, what the reason was.
