Non-interventional, retrospective-prospective cohort study based on the collection of data and their evaluation after medical procedures: micro-discectomy, endoscopic discectomy, and hemilaminectomy.
The aim of this clinical study is to compare the benefits and complications after minimally invasive spinal procedures in patients with acute lumbosacral radicular syndrome caused by a herniated disc compressing the spinal neural structures.
The study only works with patient data provided by the outpatient clinic for research analysis in the EPCS IV clinical study. All patient data are encrypted during collection and evaluation during the study, and stored in an encrypted database. The data will be evaluated by an independent institution - The Institute of Measurement of the Slovak Academy of Sciences.
