Three simple questions can help you understand if the coflex® device is right for you. This is for educational purposes only and does not replace having a conversation with your doctor.
Your responses indicate that you may not be a good candidate for the coflex® device. The coflex is approved for patients who have moderate to severe spinal stenosis as seen by pain in their back and leg/buttocks. All patients were between the ages of 40 and 85, were diagnosed with moderate to severe spinal stenosis, and had received non-surgical treatment for at least 6 months. It is up to your surgeon to determine the best treatment option for you, so please contact your spine specialist to see if you would be a candidate for the coflex® device.
Congratulations! Your responses indicate that you are a potential candidate for the 1st and only motion-preserving device to treat your moderate to severe spinal stenosis. What does this mean for you? You may be able to undergo a minimally invasive surgery that utilizes the coflex® device. Surgery and recovery time are often much shorter compared to when a fusion system is used. In addition, based on data from the coflex® US clinical trial, you may have relief of your symptoms quicker compared to a fusion procedure. Please contact your spine specialist to see if the coflex® device is the right treatment option for you.
