Interspinous Spacers

Dr. Pankaj Mehta presents the Superion Interspinous Spacer for spinal stenosis therapy. Dr. Mehta describes the minimally invasive implantation of the interspinous spacer. He highlights the biomechanics of spacers and the role of spacers in treating the cause of pain rather than symptoms. He discusses clinical trial data that shows remarkable improvements in back pain, leg pain, and patient satisfaction. Finally, he discusses the triaging of patients and how those who qualify for the interspinous spacers fit into the current algorithm.
