"Designing Growth Strategies is in our DNA"
Degenerative disc diseases are believed to be one of the most common reasons behind back pain in many adults. According to the American Chiropractic Association, nearly 31 million people in the U.S. are likely to experience lower back pain at any given time in their life. The degenerative disc diseases can be treated by total disc replacement surgery. Artificial spine discs are now being used extensively for this purpose.
The artificial discs are based on motion-sparing technology which aids in providing extended motion as well as lateral bending. When compared to spinal fusion surgery, artificial spine disc provides a fair level of mobility restoration and hence is recommended by the healthcare professionals. In 2017, RHINE, a cervical disc system manufactured by K2M Inc., completed 300 surgical cases, which indicates the increased adoption of artificial spine discs.
