Surgical Outcomes > Physiologic Measures

 We are currently:

• Studying the effect of uncontrolled hyperglycemia on neurological outcome after resection of primary and metastatic spinal tumors.
• Assessing clinical and radiographic risk factors of pseudoarthrosis after instrumented and non-instrumented fusion.
• Assessing physiological and operative risk factors of surgical site infection after multilevel posterior spine surgery.
• Determining intra-operative physiological parameters that are associated with peri-operative morbidity after multi-level spinal surgery.
