  4. Neck PainSources Muscle Pain Spinal Column

  5. Neck Pain, Spinal Column Lateral (Side) Cross Section

  6. Neck Pain, Spinal Column

  7. Neck Pain, Discs

  8. Neck Pain, Discs Bulging Disc

  9. Neck Pain, Pinched Nerve Medical Term: Cervical Radiculopathy

  10. Neck Pain, Pinched Nerve Ruptured Disc Bone (Stenosis)

  11. Neck Pain, Pinched Nerve Herniated Disk Foraminal Stenosis

  12. Cervical Radiculopathy, Causes Often caused by degeneration of the spine (arthritis, spondylosis)

  13. Cervical Radiculopathy, Symptoms Neck Pain Arm pain, tingling, and/or numbness Headaches

  14. Treatment Options for Cervical Radiculopathy

  15. Treatments, ACDF ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy & Fusion) Anterior– from the front Cervical– in the neck portion of the spine Discectomy– removes disc material Fusion– joins two or more vertebrae

  16. ACDF, Procedure Overview

  17. ACDF, Procedure Overview ACDF (Anterior Cervical Discectomy & Fusion)

  18. ACDF, Possible Complications Hoarseness Swallowing disturbance Infection Blood loss Nerve injury or paralysis Need for further surgery

  19. Treatments, Artificial Disc Also called a disc replacement or spine arthroplasty device. A device is implanted intended to preserve motion.

  20. Artificial Disc, Procedure Overview

  21. Artificial Disc, Possible Complications Similar to an anterior cervical discectomy and fusion and may include: Infection Blood loss Nerve injury or paralysis Note: Not ideal for patients with arthritis

  22. Minimally Disruptive Posterior Cervical Fusion Indirect Decompression Stabilization & Fusion

  23. DTRAX, Procedure Overview Posterior– from the back Indirect decompression– lifts facets Fusion– joins two or more vertebrae

  24. DTRAX, Procedure Overview

  25. DTRAX, Patient Advantages Does not remove healthy tissue or stabilizing structures Favorable cosmetic outcome Does not "burn any bridges" Does not limit options for future treatment

  26. Role of MIS Posterior Stabilization Supplemental stabilization & posterior fusion w/ ACDF Spondolytic radiculopathy & foraminal stenosis Symptomatic non-union from ACDF

  27. DTRAX: Pain Reduction in Arm Visual Analogue Scale (VAS): ARM Baseline 2 Weeks 6 Weeks 3 Months 6 Months 12 Months

  28. DTRAX: Pain Reduction in Neck Visual Analogue Scale (VAS): Neck Baseline 2 Weeks 6 Weeks 3 Months 6 Months 12 Months

  29. DTRAX, Comparable Outcomes NDI Outcomes vs. Traditional Cervical Operations

  30. FAQ How Long has DTRAX Been Around? First surgery performed worldwide in 2009 FDA clearance in 2013 How many have been performed? DTRAX Technology has been used in over 2,000 patients How much experience does Dr. XXXXX have? Input information here
