YOUR SPINE CARE JOURNEY

Your Hospital Stay

From the moment of admission, patients are cared for by Dr. Fabio Tresoldi and his clinical team throughout their surgical pathway. Discharge planning begins early, allowing each stage of hospitalization and postoperative recovery to be organized according to the individual patient's clinical needs.

We understand that undergoing spine surgery and being admitted to hospital can be a source of concern. Our aim is therefore to provide patients with clear information, continuous clinical support and attentive care throughout their stay, whether they are undergoing a day procedure or require a longer period of hospitalization.

Some procedures may allow patients to be admitted and discharged on the same day (Day Surgery), while patients requiring overnight monitoring or a longer postoperative stay are admitted as inpatients. The length of hospitalization depends on the type of procedure performed, the patient's clinical condition and the progress of their postoperative recovery.

For patients travelling from another region of Italy or from abroad, having family members nearby can provide valuable support during hospitalization and the early stages of recovery. When required, information can be provided regarding suitable accommodation close to the hospital, allowing relatives or accompanying persons to remain within easy reach throughout the patient's stay.

YOUR SPINE SURGERY JOURNEY

Step 1

Your First Consultation

The patient pathway begins with an initial consultation at the most convenient clinic location.

During the consultation, Dr. Fabio Tresoldi, Senior Consultant Spine Surgeon and Neurosurgeon, carries out a comprehensive assessment of the patient's symptoms, clinical history and neurological status.

Available diagnostic imaging — including X-rays, MRI and CT scans — is reviewed directly and correlated with the clinical and neurological findings. When relevant, additional investigations such as electromyography (EMG), bone density testing (DEXA) or other diagnostic studies are also taken into consideration.

The objective is not simply to interpret an imaging report, but to understand whether the findings identified on diagnostic imaging actually correlate with the patient's symptoms and neurological condition.

This comprehensive evaluation helps establish the most accurate diagnosis and determine the most appropriate treatment strategy, whether this involves conservative management, further diagnostic investigation or surgical treatment when clinically indicated.

Discharge and Recovery

Planning for discharge and recovery begins shortly after surgery. Depending on the procedure performed and the patient's clinical condition, mobilization and rehabilitation may begin during the early postoperative period under the guidance of the clinical team.

Patients and, where appropriate, their families are kept informed about the progress of recovery, the expected length of hospital stay and the criteria that need to be met before discharge.

When leaving the hospital, patients are generally advised to arrange for a family member or accompanying person to assist them with their journey home.

Before discharge, each patient receives clear instructions regarding the next stages of recovery. These may include postoperative care, medication, activity and mobility recommendations, rehabilitation when required, and arrangements for a follow-up consultation.

Recovery after spine surgery varies according to the procedure performed, the underlying spinal condition and the individual patient. For this reason, the postoperative pathway is tailored to each patient's specific clinical needs.

The objective is to support a safe and progressive return to everyday activities, while monitoring neurological recovery, managing postoperative symptoms and helping each patient achieve the best possible functional outcome and quality of life.

Iuliana – “An Excellent Surgeon”

L4–L5 disc herniation, L4–S1 degenerative disc disease – spinal stabilization surgery at the age of 35

“I placed my trust in Dr. Tresoldi and achieved excellent results following my spinal stabilization surgery.

Here in Cagliari, Sardinia, I had been suffering for four years and had reached the point where I could barely walk. In a relatively short time, Dr. Tresoldi helped me regain my quality of life and the desire to move forward again.

I am extremely grateful for the care I received and would confidently recommend Dr. Tresoldi to anyone facing similar spinal problems.”
