Description

Spine surgery can trigger body-wide complications, and a simple score could flag risky patients before the cut. Shota Ikegami and co-authors build such a score from a Japanese national registry in a 2026 study. Their data hold 8,930 spine cases from the first quarter of 2024.

Five traits drive the score: age, daily function, emergency status, wear disease, and spine trauma. Scores run from zero to 22 points. Complication rates rose from 0.23 percent in the low band to 6.67 percent in the high band. The score sorted risk at a fair level in checks. Surgeons gain a clear, quick tool for consent talks.
