Pre-CLINICAL DATA

In an in vitro study, upregulation of multiple BMPs occurred in as little as 30 minutes of exposure with optimal upregulation at 24 hours of exposure. (1)

Pre-clinical studies have shown that Capacitive Coupling causes significantly higher levels of cellular proliferation than other electrical stimulation technologies. (2)

Human Clinical Trial Data

A systematic review of bone growth stimulation therapies concluded capacitive coupling to have the highest percentage of patients achieving solid fusion versus PEMF and Direct Current stimulation technologies. (3)

Proportion of patients that achieved solid fusion in the intervention (electrical stimulation) and the control (placebo/no stimulation)* groups following lumbar spinal fusion procedures†. CC, capacitive coupling; DC, direct current; PEMF, pulsed electromagnetic field. (5)

The Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator is supported by clinical results. In this human clinical trial the overall success rate (clinicall and radiographic healing) for all lumbar fusions was 84.7% in the active capacitively coupled group vs. 64.9% in the placebo group. In this same clinical trial, the active capacitively coupled stimulator achieved statistically significant results in a variety of measurements. (6)

Important Prescribing Information

Description: Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator passes a specific current between the electrodes in order to promote healing by inducing a therapeutic, low level electrical current at the fusion site. Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician. Prescription (Rx) only. This device is not intended for re-sale.

Indications for Use: The Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator is a noninvasive bone growth stimulator indicated as an adjunct electrical treatment to primary lumbar spinal fusion surgery for one or two levels. The device is for prescription use only, and intended for single patient use in adult patients only.

Contraindications: There are no known contraindications.

Warnings: Cardiac pacemakers or cardioverters may be adversely affected by Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator. The concomitant use of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator and a pacemaker or cardioverter must be assessed on an individual basis, such as with an electrocardiogram, prior to use. The patient should be referred to a cardiologist for monitoring of pacemaker function while wearing the active stimulator device. If there are any observable adverse changes in the pacemaker rhythm or output, Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator should not be used. The safety and effectiveness of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator in pregnant women have not been studied and the effects of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator on the mother or the developing fetus are unknown. A patient who is either pregnant or is intending to become pregnant should be referred to her doctor prior to treatment with Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator.

Precautions: The safety and effectiveness of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator in individuals with the following conditions have not been studied, and therefore the safety and effectiveness of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator in these individuals are unknown: spondylitis, infection, Paget’s disease, cancer, diabetes mellitus, renal disease, osteoporosis, trauma of the lumbar spine. Apply the electrodes after the skin has been cleaned and dried. If erythema develops at the electrode sites, the electrodes should be relocated adjacent to the original sites. If the reaction does not resolve after 48 hours after relocating the electrodes, the patient should be instructed to consult with the physician. Do not submerge or expose Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator to water. The patient must be instructed to remove Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator during bathing, showering or swimming. Compliance with the treatment schedule, daily battery pack changes, and replacing the electrodes (1 to 7 days) as needed are essential for proper device function. This system should only be used with components and replacement parts supplied by Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator. Other components, parts and accessories may not be compatible, and may damage Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator. If any component does not function properly, contact Customer Service at (844) 228-2067. No attempt should be made to modify or repair Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator. Patients should be able to use Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator in accordance with the instructions for use. If a patient cannot comply with these instructions for any reason, use of Xstim Spine Fusion Stimulator is not recommended.
