About
Background: A compliant mechanism clamp latches onto a spinal vertebra. This can be fastened to vertebra without damaging bone. It can be used to attach fusion or other needed materials or instrumentation for both medical and research applications. About the Market: The compliant vertebral attachment can be used to attach spinal tratment hardware (for example, fusion rods, dynamic stabilization devices, mechanical testing hardware) to the spine. This could be for clinical treatment (e.g., spinal surgery), or for ex vivo mechanical testing (e.g., biomechanical testing).
