Biostat^® Disc Augmentation System

Spinal Restoration, Inc. has developed the Biostat® Disc Augmentation System specifically for treating discogenic low back pain resulting from Internal Disc Disruptions (IDD). The Biostat Disc Augmentation System consists of BIOSTAT BIOLOGX® Fibrin Sealant, a human derived, biologic tissue sealant, and the Biostat® Delivery Device, a proprietary application system designed to deliver the biologic to the disc.

The procedure, which is called resorbable biologic disc augmentation, involves application of BIOSTAT BIOLOGX Fibrin Sealant into a disrupted disc to occlude the annular fissures and lay down a tissue repair matrix. Occluding the fissures helps prevent leakage of the nucleus pulposus into the outer one-third of the annulus fibrosus or onto the spinal nerve root. Application of BIOSTAT BIOLOGX Fibrin Sealant to the disc may alleviate pain by sealing the painful disruptions, reducing inflammation, and enhancing tissue repair.
