Mekanika National Spine Care
and Back Pain Forum
Spine Care Forum was developed to track, analyze
and report the outcomes of many diverse back pain treatments, both
surgical and non-surgical. In order to create a comprehensive, informative
database that will guarantee a high quality, broad spectrum of much
needed information, we are asking all physicians who perform spinal
procedures and treat back pain to participate. This information
will be made available by way of an international website, allowing
physicians and surgeons the ability to compare and contrast the
outcomes from many existing, new and promising spine care therapies,
including those in the armamentarium of the internist and family
practitioner.
Mekanika is finalizing development and preparing
market introduction of the most innovative advancement in the history
of spinal stabilization. The Company is optimistic that the Forum
will create an international awareness of the Mekanika Spinal Restabilization
System. This system represents a paradigm shift in the spinal implant
segment of the orthopedic industry that is long overdue, offering
the spine surgeon the first intra-operative diagnostic measurement
of spinal instability and another first, the choice either of arthrodesis
or arthroplasty. A brief description of this system is as follows:
The Spinal Stiffness Gauge™ (SSG™)
is the first computer-based instrument for measuring and documenting
pre- and post-decompressive spinal instability to guide the decision
on the type of spinal fixation indicated.
The Modulus System* is both
a fusion (arthrodesis) and restabilization (arthroplasty) system
made of a proprietary carbon-fiber composite. The material is MRI
compatible and can be made to have the same modulus as bone, made
stronger than titanium and has the potential to reduce the complications
seen from fusion at the adjacent spine joints adjacent MSU's.
Participants in this Forum are selected based
on specialty, years in practice, and exact demographic location.
