Summary

What Researchers Did

Researchers studied 10 patients with traumatic spinal disk herniation who received surgery, internal fixation, and hyperbaric oxygen treatment.

What They Found

All 10 patients were followed for 8 to 16 months, and 9 out of 10 showed some recovery of spine function. The average JOA score, which measures spine function, significantly improved from 8 before surgery to 15 after surgery.

Canadian Relevance

No direct Canadian connection identified.

Study Limitations

The study's main limitations include its very small sample size of only 10 patients and the lack of a control group to compare outcomes.
