Zusammenfassung:STUDY DESIGN.Retrospective study of Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS). OBJECTIVE.The objective of this study is to estimate the prevalence of complications in children who had insertion of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP) at the time of spinal fusion procedures (SFP) and to examine if the use of rhBMP is associated with an increased risk of complications. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA.Use of rhBMP for SFP has been associated with conflicting safety profile reports in adults. METHODS.NIS (years 2004–2010) was used. All patients with age
