Incidental durotomy (ID) is one of the most common complications of spine surgery. Gold standard treatment for ID and the best way to prevent persistent cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks is to create a primary sutured repair of the dura. However, suturing can be time consuming, complex and in some cases access to the tear is not possible. DuraStat is a surgical device that enables high-quality, gold standard dural repairs with efficiency; even when access is limited.
Enables gold standard treatment. Sutured repairs are the best known way to prevent persistent CSF leaks.
Consolidates steps and automates suture passage to increase reproducibility, helping save time.
Enhanced visualization and simplicity enables repairs in more situations, including confined spaces.
DuraStat enables quality, efficiency, and access by combining steps and reducing variation.
