ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at a new method of surgery for patients with cervical spondylosis, a condition affecting the neck. Specifically, it is studying the use of a special type of bone graft during a procedure called Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF). The goal is to see if this new approach can help bones heal better and improve patients' overall health after surgery.

To participate in this trial, you need to be between 18 and 60 years old and have cervical spondylosis that requires surgery on 1-2 segments of your neck. You also need to agree to the surgery and be willing to return for follow-up visits over time. However, certain health conditions may exclude you, such as severe heart or lung issues, or if you're pregnant or recently involved in another clinical trial. If you join, you can expect close monitoring of your recovery and health outcomes after the surgery.
