SPINE FIX®

Bone cement for Vertebroplasty, Kyphoplasty & Pedicular Screw

SPINE FIX® is a ready to use bone cement with a high amount of radiopaque agent for vertebroplasty, kyphoplasty & pedicular screw injection procedures.

SPINE FIX® allows an excellent consolidation of the vertebral boby with an effective and rapid pain relief.
The handling times of SPINE FIX® have been specifically developed to give to the surgeon a comfortable application phase.

ADVANTAGES

  • Radio-opaque
  • Low viscosity
  • Biocompatibility
  • Easy and safe injection
  • Injection time : 12 mn
  • Low exothermicity

SPINE-FIX® bone cement is indicated for the treatment of painful vertebral compression fractures of the vertebral body, or of metastatic extraspinal lesions, and for augmentation of the fixation strength of pedicular screws.

PHYSICO- CHEMICAL COMPOSITION
Two components PMMA bone cement : polymer powder containing HA particles and liquid monomer.

BIOCOMPATIBLE
The 10% HA component gives to the product a better biocompatibility.

EASY INJECTION
The initial low viscosity facilitates mixing and filling of the injection system. SPINE FIX® has the right polymerisation time, guarantee of a complete secure process. The physician gets sufficient time to slowly inject and perform filling of two vertebrae levels with one dose.

IDEAL VISCOSITY
SPINE FIX® is not too liquid to avoid leakages into the vertebra “touchy” areas, not too pasty in order to be injected without any problem, through trocart of Gauge 11 to 13.

IDEAL RADIO OPACITY
SPINE FIX® has the right rate of radio-opaque agent (35%) to allow the physician to perfectly follow the flow of the bone cement into the vertebral body during injection time.
