New possibilities through dynamic stabilization

Think about your spine: it has to keep you upright and stable; yet at the same time, it must give you the flexibility to bend and twist. The coflex^® device is intended to provide relief from the narrowing of the spinal canal and restore some of the stability lost through aging, while also offering the possibility of returning the spine to a more normal physiology.

This device is “investigational,” meaning that it is currently the subject of a clinical research study conducted under the terms of the medical protocol and approved by the U.S. government’s Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

How does coflex work?

The coflex device is an implant designed to be surgically placed between the spinous processes (the part of the spine extending from the back of the spine, which can frequently be felt through the skin along the center of the back) following a spinal decompression. Once implanted, the coflex can increase the space in the spinal canal by restoring the distance between the vertebrae and creating larger openings through which the nerve roots can pass, thereby helping to mitigate the symptoms of lumbar spinal stenosis, including the pain, weakness and other abnormal sensations.
