The new spinal fixation systems include the Cervical Stand-alone IBD, Vu CPOD Non-Strut IBD and Steerable IBD. The IBDs are small hollow implants that are inserted into intervertebral space to restore physiological disc height and allow fusion between vertebral bodies.
The devices are designed to maintain the natural disc space height and provide positive mechanical stabilization of the vertebrae, which relives pressure on the nerves. The devices’ graft window allows natural bone growth to occur through the IBD.
The devices are currently in limited commercial release and are targeted for full commercial release later this year.
