Abstract
Study design: Narrative review.
Objective: The objective of this study is to explore and evaluate the role of novel technologies in enhancing the diagnosis, surgical precision, and rehabilitation of cervical spine trauma, and to discuss their potential impact on clinical outcomes.
Summary of background data: Traumatic cervical spine injuries are challenging to manage due to their complex anatomy, the potential for long-term disability, and severe neurological deficits. Traditional management approaches are being supplemented by emerging technologies that promise to improve patient care and outcomes.
Methods: A literature review was conducted to identify and analyze advancements in imaging, navigation, robotics, and wearable technologies in the context of cervical spine trauma. The review focuses on the potential of these technologies to improve early detection, surgical accuracy, and postoperative recovery.
Results: Technological innovations, including advanced imaging techniques, machine learning for diagnostics, augmented reality, and robotic-assisted surgery, are transforming the management of cervical spine trauma. These tools contribute to more efficient, accurate, and personalized treatment approaches, potentially improving clinical outcomes and reducing patient care burdens.
Conclusions: Although these technologies hold great promise, challenges such as implementation costs and the need for specialized training must be addressed. With continued research and interdisciplinary collaboration, these advancements can significantly enhance the management of cervical spine trauma, improving patient recovery and quality of life.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Spine Surgery is the ideal journal for the busy practicing spine surgeon or trainee, as it is the only journal necessary to keep up to date with new clinical research and surgical techniques. Readers get to watch leaders in the field debate controversial topics in a new controversies section, and gain access to evidence-based reviews of important pathologies in the systematic reviews section. The journal features a surgical technique complete with a video, and a tips and tricks section that allows surgeons to review the important steps prior to a complex procedure.
Clinical Spine Surgery provides readers with primary research studies, specifically level 1, 2 and 3 studies, ensuring that articles that may actually change a surgeon’s practice will be read and published. Each issue includes a brief article that will help a surgeon better understand the business of healthcare, as well as an article that will help a surgeon understand how to interpret increasingly complex research methodology. Clinical Spine Surgery is your single source for up-to-date, evidence-based recommendations for spine care.
