Outcome prediction following lumbar disc surgery: a longitudinal study of outcome trajectories, prognostic factors, and risk models
Patients with lumbar radiculopathy experience heterogeneous postoperative trajectories of pain and disability after lumbar discectomy. Individual preoperative factors are associated with postoperative outcomes and can be combined within a multivariable risk model to predict overall patient outcome. These results may inform clinical practice but require external validation before confident clinical implementation.
