Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 Use in Adult Spinal Deformity Surgery: Comparative Analysis and Healthcare Utilization at 24 Months' Follow-up

Nicholas Dietz et al.

Summary: This retrospective cohort study investigated the use of rhBMP-2 in ASD surgery and found that it was not associated with increased complications or reoperations. The study also found that overall healthcare payments were not different compared to those without the use of rhBMP-2 at 12 months and 24 months after discharge.

Impact of surgeon rhBMP-2 cost awareness on complication rates and health system costs for spinal arthrodesis

Margaret McGrath et al.

Summary: Surgeon awareness of the cost of rhBMP-2 led to a reduction in rhBMP-2 dosage, decreased cost per surgery, and overall hospital admission charges, without a detectable increase in surgical complications.
