General Information
VendorMedtronic Neurological and Spinal
ItemEquation™ Spinal System
FeaturesThe Equation™ System incorporates a semi-rigid design that: increases loading on interbody constructs, decreases stress transfer to adjacent vertebral elements while bone-graft healing takes place (i.e., reduces possible causes of junction syndrome), decreases anatomical interference and, in turn, increases space for bone graft placement, balances strength with flexibility. It is a temporary implant system used for correction and stabilization of the posterior spine for the development of a solid spinal fusion.

Product Description
The Equation™ System incorporates a semi-rigid design that balances strength with flexibility. The Equation™ System is a reduced-volume and top-tightening spinal instrumentation system. This system provides a means of fixation that mimics the load distribution of natural human anatomy (i.e., semi-rigid system designed to share, not bear, the load). Stabilizes the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine, especially as an adjunct to interbody construct placement. Assists with the reduction of spondylolisthesis and spinal deformities, such as kyphosis and hyperlordosis. Provides supplemental fixation in cases involving vertebral instabilities, including fractures and dislocation.
