The procedure is performed using specialized, expandable instrumentation that conserves bony anatomy and protects neural structures to provide: Enhanced recovery Exceptional efficiency Proven outcomes backed by FDA IDE clinical trial data Enhanced Recovery The OptiLIF procedure conserves bony anatomy and protects neural structures, which means patients recover quickly,1 resulting in: Short hospital stays1 High postoperative patient satisfaction scores1 Rapid return to work1 Reduced use of narcotics over time1 Exceptional Efficiency Concerns about patient welfare and healthcare economics demand the use of increasingly efficient procedures. The OptiLIF procedure leads to exceptional efficiency in surgery and throughout the episode of care through the use of specialized instrumentation and techniques: Tissue dilation, instead of broad dissection, and use of a facet-sparing approach speeds access to the disc space. In situ filling of OptiMesh can provide indirect decompression, or minimize the complexity of it, reducing procedural time. The minimal exposure dramatically speeds incision closure. Surgeon rounding requirements are minimized due to short hospital stays.¹ Proven Outcomes Results of the Spineology Clinical Outcomes (SCOUT) study, an FDA IDE clinical trial, demonstrates the efficacy, reproducibility, and safety of the OptiLIF procedure.1 Safety The safety profile of this device is exceptional. There were no device-related serious adverse events in the SCOUT IDE study.1 The OptiLIF® procedure employs Spineology’s proprietary OptiMesh® Expandable Interbody Fusion System.
