Overview

About the Device

Electrical stimulation of the spine is the application of an external, electric treatment signal that helps promote the body’s own natural healing process following a spinal fusion.

A spine fusion stimulator is sometimes used to help the body heal; especially if a patient has specific risk factors or an underlying medical condition that may compromise normal healing.

Effective

  • In one clinical study for posterolateral fusions, the SpinalPak Stimulator System demonstrated clinical or radiological healing outcomes as high as 92.7%. 1*
  • For lumbar spinal fusions, overall success rate (clinical and radiographic) was 84.7% in the SpinalPak group vs. 64.9% in the placebo group (P=0.004).1
  • In posterolateral fusions, the success rate was 89.1% in the SpinalPak group vs. 64.9% in the placebo group (P=0.006).1

Scientifically Proven

  • In one in vitro pre-clinical study, upregulation of multiple bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) was shown to occur with capacitive coupling (CC) stimulation in as little as 30 minutes of exposure with optimal upregulation occurring at 24 hours.2,**
  • In another pre-clinical study, capacitive coupling (CC) stimulation was shown to cause significantly higher levels of cellular proliferation than other electrical stimulation technologies, including combined magnetic fields (CMF) and pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF).3,**

Benefits

Biomet® SpinalPak® Non-invasive Spine Fusion Stimulator System

Following lumbar spine fusion surgery, the SpinalPak Stimulator System may be prescribed. The SpinalPak Stimulator System utilizes a unique capacitive coupling technology that is designed to deliver a therapeutic, electrical treatment signal via a pair of disposable electrodes. The Soft-Touch® electrodes that accompany the system are lightweight and easily applied to the skin on either side of the fusion site. The treatment signal operates at a low-level frequency in which most patients don’t feel anything during treatment; however, some patients have reported feeling a slight, tingling sensation.

  • The SpinalPak Stimulator System is easy to use, portable and battery operated.
  • The device is a small, lightweight non-invasive spinal fusion stimulator which allows patients to treat while going about their daily routine.
  • The Soft-Touch® electrodes can be comfortably worn under a brace.
  • Compliance monitoring consistently tracks your treatment progress.
  • Nearly 490,000 patients have been treated with the SpinalPak Stimulator System.4
  • The SpinalPak Stimulator System is FDA approved and has more than 30 years of clinical use.5
