Spine endoscopic surgery establishment for disc disease (Neurocore-SENSED): an open and decentralized consensus

We established the Neurocore-SENSED framework, comprising COS and reporting guidelines for ESS for disc disease. This consensus addresses fundamental heterogeneity in ESS research, complementing existing nomenclature and indication-specific guidelines. By enhancing consistency, comparability, and quality of ESS research, this framework aims to accelerate the development of evidence-based practices that optimize patient outcomes in this rapidly advancing field.
