BOSTON (PRWEB) AUGUST 04, 2020–Sacrix, LLC, a KICVentures Company, invented a new 100% percutaneous posterior sacroiliac joint (SIJ) fixation technique that can be done in less than 20 minutes through a 1.5cm incision in an outpatient setting with no blood loss.
This new technique for outpatient SIJ fusion uses a pair of patented FDA-cleared threaded cannulated devices that can be placed over a guide wire easily and safely for joint compression that allows for the patient to go home the same day of surgery.
This was the first Sacrix procedure done at this world-leading academic center in the USA as a test case. After the surgery, the neurosurgeon remarked, “Sacrix is the best system for SIJ fusion I have used, it is simple, very easy to use, and straightforward.”
Sacrix has a patented device called SacroFuse which has varying thread configurations to create SIJ compression, a uniquely designed tip that allows for self-drilling and tapping, a threaded inserter that is secured to the implant for insertion and recovery, and a hollow caged cavity that auto-fills with bone graft as the device is inserted. SacroFuse can also be pre-packed and post-packed with flowable NanoFUSE Biologics.
“This threaded device provides compressive stability so there is immediate pain relief” said SacroFuse inventor Professor Dr Kingsley R Chin.
