Brief Summary
The Long-Term Outcomes Study (LTOS) is a multi-center longitudinal cohort study of all patients who received the X-STOP device in the Pivotal Trial, Continued Access Protocol (CAP), or Cross-over Study (COS). It is designed to supplement postmarket safety and effectiveness data to be gathered in a Condition of Approval (CoA) study of a population of patients with moderately impaired physical function who elect to undergo X-STOP surgery.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Treatment Success Rates (At ≥ 5 Years)
Seven treatment success criteria were defined as follows: clinically significant improvement (at least 0.5 points) in Symptom Severity (SS) domain of Zurich Claudication Questionnaire (ZCQ), clinically significant improvement (at least 0.5 points) in Physical Function (PF) domain of ZCQ, Patient Satisfaction (PS) score of \<2.5 points in ZCQ, no additional lumbar spinal stenosis surgery at the index level, maintenance of distraction, no device dislodgement, no device-related complications. All 7 criteria must be met to be considered a treatment success.
3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Secondary Outcomes (3)
Change in Symptom Severity (SS) and Physical Functioning (PF) as Using Zurich Claudication Questionnaire (ZCQ) Domain Scores (At ≥ 5 Years)
Baseline and 3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Patient Satisfaction (PS) as Assessed by Zurich Claudication Questionnaire (ZCQ) Domain Scores (At ≥ 5 Years)
3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Change in Quality of Life Using Short Form 36-Question (SF-36) Health Survey (At ≥ 5 Years)
Baseline and 3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Other Outcomes (2)
Number of Patients With Subsequent Lumbar Spinal Surgeries That Occurred During the Study
3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Number of Patients With Device/Procedure Related Adverse Events That Occurred During the Study
3+ years following first 2 years post-X-STOP implant through IDE study
Interventions
The X STOP is a titanium implant that fits between the spinous processes of the lumbar spine. It is made from Ti-6AI-4V Eli titanium alloy (ISO 5832/3) and consists of two components: a spacer assembly and a wing assembly.
Eligibility Criteria
Patients who received implants and completed participation in the Pivotal, CAP, or COS studies and has the implant intact and is willing and able to provide consent and return to the clinic for evaluation or complete study questionnaires.
You may qualify if:
- Completed participation in the Pivotal Trial, CAP, or COS and has the X STOP implant(s) intact at the time of LTOS enrollment; OR is an active CAP/COS participant, has the X STOP implant(s) intact, and has not completed a 24-month follow-up visit in his/her CAP/COS study.
- Is willing and able to provide Informed Consent
- Is willing and able to return to the clinic for a clinical evaluation or complete study questionnaires without a clinic visit.
You may not qualify if:
- Participated in the Pivotal Trial as part of the X STOP group, but the device has been removed.
- Participated in the CAP or COS programs, but the device has been removed.
