Goal

Immediate and enhanced implant fixation

Concept

Reinforcement of the host bone

Technology

Ultrasonic energy is used to liquefy a thermoplastic polymer leading to improved interface between the implant and the host bone

Benefits

• Comparable efficacy to PMMA in-vitro
• Minimum time
  
• Easy handling​
• Can be used with any pedicle screw
• Significantly improves the stabilitiy of screw anchorage allowing for greater confidence in the surgery outcome to both surgeons and patients
• Precise and controlled delivery of an inert polymer which solidifies immediately

The ISS is a revolution in implant fixation

• NEXILIS has optimally developed the use of this technology so that minimal energy is used while maximum stabilisation is obtained.
• In-vitro data show a 1.5- to 3-time increase in primary stability.
• The technology can be used for all implant systems. 

3 simple steps to enhanced fixation of any bone screw

• Micro-vibrations by a defined U/S frequency melt the polymer sleeve in 5-8 seconds
• Re-solidification occurs once the energy supply is stopped
• Applicable in minimally invasive and open surgery within seconds
• Immediately improved fixation by reinforcement of the host bone
