Introducing StraightForward instruments

Make insertion StraightForward with Aero-C’s precision-guided instruments, which deliver anchors within a constrained system

• Rail-based instrumentation for accurate implant and anchor placement

• Fully guided system helps achieve reproducibility

StraightForwardinsertion

Less invasive

Streamline your approach with in-line insertion

• Minimize tissue disruption with a less invasive approach

• In-line insertion reduces the potential for instrument impingement on the patient’s chin or chest

Introducing Aerofoil™Compression Technology

Secure Aero-C to the vertebral bodies with Aerofoil™Compression Technology

• Shaped like inverted plane wings, Aero-C’s unique anchors are designed to pull the vertebral bodies towards the implant as it is inserted, creating compressive forces at the implant-to-endplate interface

• In accordance with Wolff’s law, compression creates a healing environment known to stimulate bone growth2

• Integrated one-step locking mechanism is designed to lock anchors to the implant

Space needed for screw insertion

Space needed for StraightForward insertion

Uniform loading

Designed to distribute compression uniformly across the full implant-to-endplate interface

• Large anchors designed to engage the anterior and posterior aspects of the implant

Compression stabilization

Generate over 200 N of force1 with Aerofoil™ Compression Technology

• Only in-line ACDF (anterior cervical disectomy and fusion) device to offer compression across the disc space

• Compressive force helps maximize segmental stability

Effective life testing4

The unique anchor design of Aero-C demonstrated better resistance to physiological motion than a commercially available screw based implant.4

Load dispersion testing5

Aero-C was shown to be more than twice as strong as a commercially available screw based and bladed implant when testing mechanical pull-out strength in a simulated vertebral body.5

Effective life is defined as the number of cycles at which a 10% average increase over the baseline ROM was observed.
