“Sacroiliac Joint dysfunction is a debilitating conditionand I wanted a solution that would help my patients to increase their quality of life as quickly and safely as possible,” said Dr. Ali Mesiwala of the Southern California Center for Neuroscience and Spine.“The SIMPACT system helps me to achieve that goal withan implant design that saves the patient from drilling, tapping or malleting an implant into placeas has been done in earlierprocedures. Additionally, the system offers intuitive instrumentation that helps toreduce my operating time which can in turn decrease recovery time. Since introducing the system into my practice, my patients have had outstanding results, so it is no surprise to me that there havebeen such rapid adoption rates.”

LIFE SPINE ANNOUNCES INITIATION OF SIMPACT® SACROILIAC JOINT FIXATION OUTCOMES STUDY
Huntley, IL, Feb 13th, 2019 –
Life Spine, a medical device company that designs, develops, manufactures and markets products for the surgical treatment of spinal disorders, announces the initiation of the SIMPACT Sacroiliac Joint (SI) Fixation Outcomes Study, with Dr. Keith Maxwell of Southeastern Sports Medicine and Orthopedics in Asheville, North Carolina.
SIMPACT is a cannulated and fenestrated screw, intended for sacroiliac joint fusion for conditions including sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis through a lateral approach. SIMPACT also incorporates the proprietary surface technology OSSEO-LOC™, and is available in multiple lengths to accommodate varying patient anatomy.
Mariusz Knap, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for Life Spine said: “SIMPACT joins our recently released PROLIFT® Expandable Outcomes Study, further demonstrating our commitment to providing robust investment into clinical studies which evaluate the safety and efficacy of our products. As well as adding to the body of data validating our state-of-the-art product offering, these studies will demonstrate possible medical economic savings and highlight other advantages associated with new technologies such as SIMPACT.”
Dr. Keith Maxwell who is the principal investigator for the study notes, “With more than 22% of lower back pain originating from the sacroiliac joint1, the market for SI joint fixation continues to grow as better diagnostic tools and better understanding of the pathology evolve. SIMPACT has streamlined the SI joint fixation procedure for me and my patients by creating a screw design that is self-drilling, resulting in fewer surgical steps. I continue to see excellent results in treating sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis, and we expect these results to continue throughout the course of this study.”

Life Spine Announces Initial Cases and Multiple Surgeries with the SIMPACT™ Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System
Huntley, IL, December 20, 2017
Life Spine, a medical device company that designs, develops, manufactures and markets products for the surgical treatment of spinal disorders, announced today the initial cases and multiple surgeries performed with SIMPACT Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System.
“My first surgery with SIMPACT was seamless and incredibly simple. The procedure was complete in less than twenty minutes, the patient lost almost no blood and there was no bruising,” said Dr. Ali Mesiwala of the Southern California Center for Neuroscience and Spine. “The system is unique in that the screw is aggressive enough to self-drill and tap, reducing or eliminating the need for multiple steps, and allows you to reduce Sacroiliac Joint Diastasis. Additionally, the anti-rotational sleeve protects against back-out and the fenestrations and cannulation of the screw self-harvest bone as it is implanted. Separately, these features are excellent, but combined, they allow for a procedure that is safe, effective and reproducible.”
SIMPACT Tri-Fin, which features OSSEO-LOC™ surface technology, launched November of 2017 and joins Life Spine’s broad portfolio of full procedural solutions.
