Product Description

Orthofix – Bone Growth Stimulator

Spinal-Stim has high success rates for spinal fusion. With an overall clinical success rate of 92 percent, Spinal-Stim provides a 36 percent increase in lumbar fusion success when used adjunctively to surgery.1,2 Spinal-Stim is also the only osteogenesis stimulator approved as a non-surgical alternative for treating failed lumbar fusions

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Spinal-Stim has high success rates for spinal fusion. With an overall clinical success rate of 92 percent, Spinal-Stim provides a 36 percent increase in lumbar fusion success when used adjunctively to surgery.^1,2 Spinal-Stim is also the only osteogenesis stimulator approved as a non-surgical alternative for treating failed lumbar fusions.^1,3

Product Highlights

• High success rates for spinal fusion (92 percent when used adjunctively to surgery)^1,2
• Only U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved osteogenesis stimulator for non-surgically treating pseudarthrosis^1,3
• Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) treatment signal covers 360 degrees, up to five levels of fusion^1,4
• Works effectively when worn over clothing or bracing
• Lightweight, all-in-one unit with no cords allows unrestricted patient mobility during treatment
• Built-in daily monitoring software to track patient compliance
• Money-back guarantee that enables insurers to cover with confidence*
