Kineflex Lumbar Disc
SpinalMotion has developed motion-preserving, non-fusion technology for spine surgeons to treat patients with degenerative disc disease and related conditions of the lumbar and cervical spine.
Our Kineflex lumbar artificial disc is investigational in the United States, and has been studied as part of an FDA Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) study. The study commenced in 2005 and enrollment was completed in late 2006. Over 500 patients were treated in this randomized, controlled clinical trial. The investigational group was the Kineflex Disc and the control group was FDA approved lumbar artificial disc. This is the first known clinical trial to evaluate two artificial discs with each other. It is expected that the FDA will evaluate this study in 2010.
