Abstract
Retrospective review. The aim of this study was to develop a novel surgical invasiveness index for cervical deformity (CD) surgery that incorporates CD-specific parameters. There has been a surgical invasiveness index for general spine surgery and adult spinal deformity, but a CD index has not been developed. CD was defined as at least one of the following: C2-C7 Cobb >10°, cervical lordosis (CL) >10°, cervical sagittal vertical axis (cSVA) >4 cm, chin brow vertical angle >25°. Consensus from experienced spine and neurosurgeons selected weightings for each variable that went into the invasiveness index. Binary logistic regression predicted high operative time (>338 minutes), estimated blood loss (EBL) (>600 mL), or length of stay (LOS) >5 days) based on the median values of operative time, EBL, and LOS. Multivariable regression modeling was utilized to construct a final model incorporating the strongest combination of factors to predict operative time, LOS, and EBL. Eighty-five CD patients were included (61 years, 66% females). The variables in the newly developed CD invasiveness index with their corresponding weightings were: history of previous cervical surgery (3), anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (2/level), corpectom...Continue Reading
