Dr. Samuel Joseph Brings New Innovative First Awake, Outpatient Spinal Fusion Surgery To Tampa Bay | ||

TAMPA, Fla., July 22, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- During this procedure the patient is awake, treated with localized pain blocks, avoiding the need for general anesthesia and after-surgery narcotics. Awake MIS TLIF is a safe and effective technique, with the following advantages: 1. No hospital stay - Reducing cost associated with longer hospital stay and reduced chance of other infection. TLIF surgery is often indicated for conditions such as a pinched nerve, sciatica, herniated discs, or bone growth. Until fairly recently, open surgery was the standard—and for a long time, only—option. Endoscopic spinal surgery, minimally invasive and increasingly common, allows the procedure to be performed with smaller incisions and lower risk of complications. Awake endoscopic surgery takes minimally invasive surgery one step further, using only minimal sedation and local anesthetic to keep the patient fully awake. This type of surgery is relatively uncommon and only a few spine surgeons offer this technique. Now this new technique will be available to Joseph Spine Institute patients at all of our four bay area locations. About Dr. Samuel A. Joseph Jr. Dr. Joseph is the founder of Joseph Spine Institute.
