is a biocompatible, durable, paper-thin voltage source that will drive the next generation of orthopedic implants. It has been shown to generate consistent voltage signals over millions and millions of compressions.
Science
Spark Spine implants feature advanced piezoelectric properties intended to enhance osteoblast proliferation and promote bone healing. EMP technology harnesses the known natural response of bone to static polar and dynamic electrical activity.
Spine surgery is complex and difficult. Patients and clinicians both deserve better technology, and better outcomes.
Preclinical studies show that titanium implants with integrated EMP significantly improve osteoblast adhesion and bone cell quality. We believe EMP will revolutionize the way we approach spinal fusion surgery.
