Tallahassee, FL., November 14, 2023 – OrthoSpineNews – Vy Backbone, a spine innovation chief utilizing differentiated supplies and designs, introduced as we speak that it has obtained U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its ClariVy OsteoVy PEKK Cervical IBF, indicated for intervertebral physique fusion to be used at one stage within the cervical spine, from C3 to T1, for the therapy of degenerative disc illness (DDD).
The novel ClariVy OsteoVy PEKK Cervical IBF system combines the osseointegration properties of the OXPEKK materials and the OsteoVy lattice construction distinctive to Vy Backbone. PEKK (in contrast to PEEK) implants display bone ingrowth, no radiographic interference, no fibrotic tissue membrane formation, vital improve in bony apposition over time, and considerably larger push-out energy in comparison with normal PEEK.
Vy Backbone’s proprietary OsteoVy lattice construction aids in bony integration in addition to wicking, PEKK being a hydrophilic materials, to offer even larger profit as an interbody implant.
