Study Summary

This trial is testing a new irrigation solution for lumbar spinal fusion surgery to see if it prevents infection and improves outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults aged 18-85 who are having their first lumbar spinal fusion surgery, involving up to three levels of the spine. It's not open to those who've had a previous lumbar fusion (though prior decompression alone is okay), or individuals with spinal infections or tumors.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is examining the effectiveness of Irrisept irrigation solution during lumbar spinal fusion surgeries. It aims to see how well it works in preventing surgical site infections and improving the rate at which bones fuse together, as well as patient-reported outcomes.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
The description does not specify side effects; however, potential risks may include typical surgical complications such as infection or adverse reactions specific to the use of Irrisept irrigation solution.

Active Control
Placebo Group
Group I: Irrisept irrigation solutionActive Control1 Intervention
ii. Irrigation (Irrisept vs control of normal saline) used after initial skin inicision prior to coming through fascia, after placement of instrumentation (screws, hooks), prior to placement of bone graft, and after fascial closure iii. Irrigation exposure/soak time to be 1 min for each irrigation time point. iv. 1 bottle (450 mL) Irrisept irrigation to be used during case with normal saline rinse to follow at each irrigation time point in study subjects
Group II: normal saline control armPlacebo Group1 Intervention
ii. normal saline used after initial skin incision prior to coming through fascia, after placement of instrumentation (screws, hooks), prior to placement of bone graft, and after fascial closure iii. Irrigation exposure/soak time to be 1 min for each irrigation time point.
