Life Spine® Announces Initial Clinical Cases with PRO-LINK® Ti Stand-Alone Cervical Spacer System
October 26, 2016 – HUNTLEY, Ill.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Life Spine, a medical device company that designs, develops, manufactures and markets products for the surgical treatment of spinal disorders, announced today that the company has successfully completed initial cases with its recently launched PRO-LINK Ti Stand-Alone Cervical Spacer System. PRO-LINK Ti offers a low-profile, stand-alone cervical interbody, incorporating OSSEO-LOC™, a proprietary surface treatment for titanium which helps create an environment for potential bone growth. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provided 510(k) marketing clearance for the PRO-LINK Ti System in September 2016.
Thomas B. Scully, M.D., of Northwest Neuro Specialists stated that, “Similar to the original PEEK version of PRO-LINK, which we have used for years with great results, this latest titanium addition to the PRO-LINK family gives us another great option to improve patient treatment. I personally prefer the titanium construction for ensured strength and increased likelihood of fusion.”
PRO-LINK Ti is scheduled for full product release this week at Life Spine’s booth #1031 at the 31st North American Spine Society (NASS) Annual Meeting, and is one of over twenty Life Spine products launching in 2016.
