Rocker Interspinous Process System is a decompression spacer that is used to relieve pain from degenerative disc disease. With its unique mechanical design, placing and matching between interspinous process and interlamina to increase the support stability.
Features:
- Anatomic H-shape stabilization:H-shape will further enhance the stability of the disc.
- Spikes:Prevent vibration and back out.
- Interspinous support:Tu buffer the intervertebral loading during fixation and insertion, and to maintain intervertebral space with dynamic stability.
- Interiamina support:Anatomic shape to match the contact surface with base of interspinous process.
- Unique locking mechanism:With its patented design, it will be automatically locked up once it’s fixed in place.
- Restoration and decompression:As it can be restoring the disc height and realigning the facets by distracting the foramen, it will not only helps stop the progression of the degenerated vertebrae but also reduces compression loading on the disc, annulus and facets.
- Non-fusion:Non-fusion procedures will allow for the spine to re-stabilize toward its natural biomechanical state, rebalanceing of the spinal segment, restoring natural anatomical function, and will gree of “re-healing”.
- Uni-lateral approach:Damage-free and preserves
- User-friendly with the advantages of no removal of bone and no risk to neural elements. The alternative surgical options are stil open as well.:Supraspinous ligament preserved
- PEEK material for safety, radioiucency and biocompatibility:Ease use
- No assembling hassles during the surgery.
About Interspinous Devices
Interspinous spacers sometimes also called as Interspinous process decompression systems, are the devices implanted between vertebral spinous processes. These spacers are made up of a very strong but lightweight metal (titanium) which is biocompatible in the human body. These devices are imbedded in body to confine painful motion else enabling normal motion and to treat lumbar spinal stenosis, discogenic low-back pain, facet syndrome, disc herniations, and non-traumatic instability. Lumbar spinal stenosis is a thinning of the spinal canal in the lower back which causes compression on nerves and it is developed gradually with age. Radiology tests are used to confirm a diagnosis of moderate degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis. People with lumbar spinal stenosis experience pain but may also have weakness in their leg, lower back and buttocks, numbness, tingling.
The Interspinous spacer are implanted between those vertebrae in such a way that it prevents the patient from bending too far backward which causes pain by surgical procedure. The procedure is very small and sometimes patient can go home within a day.The increasing prevalence of spinal stenosis due to aging, arthritis, heredity and increased demand of surgical procedures that improved lifestyle and comfort will drive the Interspinous spacer market. The adoption of spacers are increasing due to low complication rate as compared to decompression and spinal fusion. The Interspinous spacers are widely used in geriatric population as per Medicare data due to old age patient are not comfortable with surgery due to their health conditions.
