Device launch
Zavation Medical Products’ eZspand expandable lumbar interbody fusion- device provides a precise, continual expansion optimized fit for each patient, enhancing structural stability and improving sagittal balance. The device does not require secondary locking, minimizing procedural steps. Each implant expands to 4.5mm from the insertion height to create a large graft window that facilitates fusion. https://zavation.com

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted Breakthrough Device designation to Neurolief’s RelivionDP system designed as an adjunctive treatment to pharmaceutical management of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults. The neurostimulation device is placed on the head, stimulating the release of neurotransmitters in the brainstem and modulating brain networks associated with mood control. Three adaptive output channels transfer mild electrical pulses to the brainstem via six branches of the occipital and trigeminal nerves. RelivionDP is used in tandem with a smartphone app and cloud database for remote monitoring, data analysis, and personalized treatments. https://www.neurolief.com
