Spinal fusion devices are utilized to stabilize a spinal structure that has lost stability owing to a fracture, degenerative spine conditions, trauma, tumors, or deformity. Spinal cord injuries are caused by a variety of factors, including a clogged blood supply, infections, traumas, and compression by a shattered bone or tumor. The technology and method of operation of spinal fusion devices have changed throughout time. Advanced plating methods increase structural stability and integrity. Spinal fusion devices include unique locking mechanisms and screw systems that can have self-drilling and self-tapping functions, are built from current manufacturing materials such as titanium alloy, and can have single or multiple holes per vertebrae through which screw fixation is done.
The frequent approval of new spinal fusion devices by regulatory agencies is likely to be a significant driver of development in the worldwide spinal fusion devices market throughout the forecast period. Spineart Geneva SA got US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) certification in 2016 for their initial line of titanium interbody systems, known as the JULIET Ti PO, OL, and TL interbody systems. The titanium interbody implants are the Juliette PO, OL, and TL interbody systems. It comes in a variety of sizes to accommodate different anatomies. To protect endplates, nerve roots, and soft tissues during insertion, the smooth bullet-shaped nose, lateral sides, and chamfers of the implant are polished.
The Ti-LIFE Technology micro-porous scaffold replicates the trabecular structure of bone, allowing cell colonization and bone ingrowth. Centinel Spine, Inc. got FDA clearance for the STALIF L Minimally-Invasive Lateral Integrated Interbody System in 2016. It is used in minimally invasive spinal fusion surgery. Furthermore, the rising frequency of spinal disorders is likely to raise demand for spinal fusions devices, driving spinal fusion devices' market development shortly. For example, according to a 2013 World Health Organization (WHO) research, between 250,000 and 500,000 persons worldwide suffer from a spinal cord injury (SCI). According to data released in 2016 by the American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPM), women are 1.38 times more likely than males to suffer from cervical degenerative disc degeneration (DDD).
