About this study

To evaluate preventing adhesion, the study group is compared with MegaShield®-SP or Guardix-SP Plus after Lumbar discectomy or laminectomy. Afterwards, they visit at 2 weeks, 12 weeks to conduct examinations and assess Questionnaires.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

MegaShield®-SP

Device

MegaShield®-SP application Lumbar discectomy or laminectomy

Guardix-SP Plus

Device

Guardix-SP Plus application Lumbar discectomy or laminectomy

Primary outcomes

  1. MRI scar score

    Time frame: At 12 weeks after surgery

    Primary effectiveness endpoint (0~4, low Scar score through MRI means better)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Oswestry Disability Index(ODI) score

    Time frame: Before surgery, At 2, 12 weeks after surgery

    Secondary effectiveness endpoint (0~50, low ODI score means better)

  2. Visual Analog Scale(VAS) Back & Leg Pain Score

    Time frame: Before surgery, At 2, 12 weeks after surgery

    Secondary effectiveness endpoint (0~100, low VAS score means better)
