Lumbar Spinal Canal Stenosis Classification Criteria: A New Tool
STUDY DESIGN Case-control study. PURPOSE To design a new tool for classifying lumbar spinal canal stenosis (CLSCS). OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Grading of patients with lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSCS) is controversial. METHODS The Oswestry disability index (ODI) and the neurogenic claudication outcome score (NCOS) were recorded. Four parameters, which indicate the severity of LSCS disease,...

متن کاملQuantification of Walking Ability in Participants with Neurogenic Claudication from Lumbar Spinal Stenosis – A Comparative Study
Background Context: Walking limitations caused by neurogenic claudication (NC) are typically assessed with self-reported measures, though objective evaluation of walking utilizing motorized treadmill test (MTT) or self-paced walking tests (SPWT) have periodically appeared in the lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) literature. Purpose: This study compared the validity and responsiveness of MTT and SPWT...
متن کاملA comprehensive study of patients with surgically treated lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication.
BACKGROUND The relationship between objective measurements and subjective symptoms of patients with spinal stenosis and the degree of narrowing of the spinal canal is not clear. The purpose of this study was to evaluate patients undergoing surgery for lumbar spinal stenosis and intermittent neurogenic claudication with functional testing, quantitative imaging, and patient self-assessment. MET...
