Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives : The present study examines the domestic trend of Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) in Korea.
Methods : The studies on FBSS were investigated via searching Korean web databases. As a result, 41 research papers were found and they were analyzed according to the year of publishment, the titles of journals which have the papers, the types of study, the defi-nition of FBSS, employed treatment trials, and the instruments for assessment.
Results : The number of the research papers on FBSS published was increased since 2005. The studies on FBSS were mainly published in the Korean Journal of Pain. The most popular type of the studies were the case report and the most studies defined FBSS as persistent or recurring low back pain with or without sciatica after receiving spine surgeries. Various surgical and conservative treatments were employed in the studies and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Numeric Rating Scale (NRS), Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used as primary means of assessments.
Conclusions : Reviewing the domestic trends of studies on FBSS and examining the defi-nition of FBSS is essential for the future studies because there is no clear criteria for making diagnosis of FBSS. Therefore, the further studies on FBSS need to be more elaborate with the definition of FBSS, and it is also necessary to apply more assessment tools for the bet-ter understanding of FBSS from various aspects. Ultimately, this review is anticipated to benefit the future in-depth study on FBSS.
