Minimally Invasive Lumbar Decompression Outcomes

OUTCOMES: MINIMALLY INVASIVE LUMBAR DECOMPRESSION, ENDOSCOPY ASSISTED

At the Spine Institute Northwest we strive to provide quality care to all our patients. To ensure we are providing the best possible care, we track the outcomes of all procedures done at our clinic.

We evaluate short and long term postoperative complications, the satisfaction of our patients, the effectiveness of procedures and techniques used, patients’ return to work prospective, postoperative medication dependency, perioperative data, and much more.

Data gathered is used to analyze areas that need improvement and to share the effectiveness and the safety of minimally invasive spine surgery, regenerative therapy, and other procedures done at the Spine Institute Northwest.
