Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Odagwa discusses the implementation and cost effectiveness of collaborative programs to enhance recovery in patients undergoing spinal surgery. He acknowledges the Hawthorne effect when starting a new program and mentions that cost data is being collected to determine the potential savings and benefits of these programs. In response to a question, he explains that patients in the co-care model were more likely to be transitioned to oral antibiotics earlier. Dr. Odagwa also discusses the potential use of regenerative technologies in spinal disc treatment, emphasizing the need for selective and effective utilization. Dr. Jin Zhao discusses the correlation between patient-reported outcomes and spinal parameter measurements but states that the data does not currently demonstrate a reduced need for re-operation. No credits are mentioned in the video.
