A multidisciplinary spine surgical indications conference leads to alterations in surgical plans in a significant number of cases: a case series

Spine Dec 16, 2020

Benton JA, Mowrey WB, Ramos RDLG, et al. - The present study was performed to explore the effect of a multidisciplinary spine surgery indications conference (MSSIC) on surgical planning for elective spine surgeries. Between September 2019 and December 2019, researchers reviewed cases presented at the MSSIC. They correlated the surgeon's initial proposed surgery for a patient with the conference attendees’ consensus decision on the best treatment and assessed compliance rates with the group's recommended treatment. During the study period, the conference reviewed 100 individuals scheduled for elective spine surgery at our indications conference. The data exhibited that MSSICs can lead to surgical planning alterations in a significant number of cases in conjunction with other multidisciplinary methods. According to the findings, this could potentially result in a better selection of surgical candidates and procedures for particular patients. This care model will likely play an integral role in optimizing the care spine surgeons provide patients, although long-term patient outcomes remain to be assessed.
