New Findings Underscore Safety And Efficiency Of Artificial Disc Replacement In The Outpatient Setting

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) The analysis involved 1,684 cervical artificial discs implanted into 1,043 patients, reviewing demographic data, ASA classifications, surgical times, patient outcomes and costs. Of the 443 women, 559 men and 1 unclassified patient studied, there were zero immediate postoperative transfers, no blood transfusions, and no readmissions within the immediate perioperative period. All patients were discharged home successfully within 24 hours to start their recovery.

Demonstrating the efficiency of ADR as an outpatient procedure regardless of level, the case breakdown included 433 single-level ADRs with an average surgical time of 69.8 minutes; 579 two-level ADRs with an average surgical time of 93.4 minutes; and 31 three-level ADRs with an average surgical time of 131.8 minutes. This data reinforces the mission of DISC Surgery Center parent company TriasMD to make motion-preserving procedures like this more accessible to patients while maintaining strict quality guidelines.

"Combined, these findings reveal the potential for significant cost savings to the healthcare system, benefiting patients, providers and payers alike," said Dr. Girdler. "ADRs can now be performed routinely in surgery centers without complications, reducing the need for lengthy hospital stays while fostering shorter recovery periods and a quicker return to active lives."

Girdler, MD , Brandon Hirsch, MD , Nick Jain, MD , Amer Khalil, MD , Luke Macyszyn, MD, FAANS, FACS , Rojeh Melikian, MD , Ali H. Mesiwala, MD, FAANS , Todd Peters, MD , and Grant D. Shifflett, MD .
