Medtronic plc recently announced the launch of its Adaptix Interbody System, a 3D-printed titanium implant that “addresses surgeons’ universal needs of fusion outcomes,” according to a company press release.
According to the release, the Adaptix Interbody System is easy to place, has subsidence resistance and nano-surface technology features and is data-validated for bone growth.
“Adaptix Interbody System allows me the best chance to meet my patients’ needs by confidently placing the implant under navigation and trusting the Titan nanoLOCK Surface Technology to allow the implant to promote fusion. Surface technology, material type and implant design all play a role in bone growth process during fusion,” J. Justine Seale, MD, of the OrthoArkansas Spine Institute, said in the release.
The system is compatible with other Medtronic technologies, including its StealthStation Navigation, O-arm imaging and Grafton DBF Inject. It also incorporates Titan nanoLOCK Surface Technology, which the release noted is “a proprietary blend of surface textures on the macro, micro and nano levels.”
“Adaptix Interbody System is an exciting addition to our portfolio that leads with our Titan nanoLOCK Surface Technology,” Sharrolyn Josse, vice president and general manager of the core spine and biologics division within Medtronic’s restorative therapies group, said in the release. “It is a fully navigated procedure, leveraging our leadership in navigation.”
