Primary outcome measure(s)
Clinically Significant Improvement in Pain on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) — At 5 years compared to Baseline Clinically Significant Improvement in Pain on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) at 5 years compared to baseline on the 0 to 100mm scale. A lower score will indicate an improvement in pain.
A lack Secondary Subsequent Surgical Intervention at 5 years Post Operative assessed during the subject's visits — A patient will achieve the primary probable benefit endpoint only is they do not undergo a Secondary Subsequent Surgical Intervention at 5 years Post Operative as assessed during the subjects visits for the study.
