Delivering quality care to spine patients is challenging in the current healthcare environment, with rising costs and competing demands for limited resources. Additionally, new spine technologies may offer innovative solutions to our patients but need tobe properly vetted and studied. Keeping up with the latest innovationsand changes to spine practice is difficult, and we have composed the latest Focus issue with this in mind.  \nMultidisciplinary sections comprise part of the North American Spine Society (NASS) Strategic Growth Council. The NASS Sections each focus on a different area of spine care and help to promote education, advance care, promote translational research, and share knowledge in each field. In this special Focus issue of the (NASSJ), we present to you NASS Section Reports. These reports consist of narrative and systematic reviews as well as highlights of state-of-the-art topics in the many sub-disciplines of spine care. These section reports allow for further exploration of topics typically covered during symposia led by the Sections at the NASS annual meeting and other educational programming.  \nWe hope that the reader of these section reports will gain knowledge on a wide range of topics to inform and improve their practices. For example, the extent and timing of when to engage a post-operative spine patient in therapeutic exercises is controversial. One Section reviews data on timing and types of exercises appropriate after lumbar surgery. The rapid development of artificial intelligence (AI) is affecting all aspects of medicine, and we include articles on its increasing utilization in spine practice. AI is already in use in planning for spinal deformity cases and presents many new tools in spine imaging, from automated spine segmentation to report generation.  \nMany other areas of spine care are also seeing important changes. The spinal cord injury field has gone from a paucity of options for neurological improvement to many emerging possibilities, including neuromodulation, neuroprotection and regenerative medicine; the state of the art in this area is reviewed. There has been rapid deployment of robotics in spine surgery in the last decade. One Section article showshow robotics and other enabling technologies is causing an evolution in minimally invasive spine surgery. Use of intraoperative neuromonitor-  \ning (IONM) has been increasing in spine surgery and now hundreds of thousands of cases per year in the US and Canada include IONM in the surgical workflow. The present and future of IONM is discussed in this Focus issue.  \nThe multidisciplinary nature of the NASS Sections allows for interaction between different fields. The Section on Spinal Oncology contributes a report on the application of deformity principles to inform spine oncology decision making and surgery. Until a few years ago, there were few good solutions for chronic low back pain in the absence of instability or deformity. The advent of basivertebral nerve ablation hasoffered a new option for such patients. One Section report reviews the data on this emerging procedure. For those with interests in developing or enhancing a social media presence, one focus article covers best practices in social media for the spine clinician. This is certainly a hot and emerging topic.  \nIn summary, this NASSJ Focus issue showcases the breadth of","cbCaie3KDqtEtIOx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaie3KDqtEtIOx","pdf",221572,"English","# Editorial\n## Guest editors introduction of the North American spine society section reports\n## Care delivery and translational research trends\n## Examples of featured topics: AI, exercises, spinal cord injury, robotics, IONM\n## Interactions across NASS Sections and highlights\n## Summary and acknowledgements","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this NASSJ Focus issue?\",\"answer\":\"It showcases NASS Section Reports that define the current state of the art and future directions in spine care, using narrative and systematic reviews plus highlights of key topics.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the introduction emphasize evaluating new spine technologies?\",\"answer\":\"Quality care is challenging in the current healthcare environment, and rising costs and limited resources require that new technologies be properly vetted and studied before broad adoption.\"},{\"question\":\"Which clinical and technology areas are highlighted in the issue?\",\"answer\":\"The introduction mentions post-operative spine exercises, artificial intelligence in spine practice and imaging, advances in spinal cord injury, robotics in minimally invasive spine surgery, and the present and future of intraoperative neuromonitoring.\"}]","Guest editors introduction of the North American spine society section reports - state of the art and future directions in spine surgery/care | PDF",1790667991]
