The Facet Joint Replacement study investigates the efficacy of artificial joint replacement using ACADIA, which is designed to recreate motion and function of healthy facet joints. They provide stability to the spine without the potential loss of motion associated with spinal fusion and can enable vertebrae to move naturally in relation to one another.
The study is sponsored by Globus Medical.
