Neurovascular Stents Market Analysis | United States | 2020-2026 | MedCore
There are two main types of neurovascular stents currently on the market, the traditional stent and the flow diverter stent. They are both used as treatments for cerebral aneurysms. Traditional neurovascular stents are small, flexible, tube-like devices used for stabilizing detachable coils within an aneurysm. They serve to block off the aneurysm and to prevent coils from slipping back into the main blood vessel. These stents are also used to treat intracranial stenosis by opening blocked arteries. These stents are delivered in reduced tube structures for easier navigation and delivery through the narrow intracranial vessels. As brain arteries are more fragile than carotid arteries, a self-expanding stent that gently opens to the desired vessel diameter is generally used. Self-expandable stents carry a lower risk of dissection or vessel rupture when compared to the balloon-expandable stents.

Neurovascular guidewires are used in conjunction with microcatheters, which are used to place coils or stents at intracranial locations to treat conditions such as aneurysms and cerebral arteriovenous malformations. Guidewires are inserted into patients through a small incision near the groin and maneuvered through the vascular system to the targeted area. The microcatheter can then be threaded over the guidewire to the treatment area. There is a wide selection of guidewires available and subtle differences between each product allow them to be used for different applications. Important properties of guidewires include flexibility, stiffness, hydrophilic coating, low friction navigation and high torqueability. A torque device can be used to aid navigation and rotation of the guidewire.

Neuroendoscopy is a rapidly expanding field of neurosurgery. Neuroendoscopy involves the use of a small fiber-optic camera attached to an endoscope that is a few millimeters in diameter. Neuroendoscopes combine high quality fiberoptic images with flexible and steerable designs that allow neurosurgeons to visualize their target deep within the brain without disrupting other vital structures. In order to transmit extremely accurate images to the neurosurgeon, there have been innovative advances in lens design and optical physics over the last decade. Smaller fiberoptic scopes with improved image quality, as well as three-dimensional imaging, have contributed to advancements within this market. An endoscope can also be utilized with or without stereotactic techniques.

Neurovascular catheters, also known as microcatheters, are a type of catheter small enough to be used in neurovascular procedures. The devices are very narrow in order to traverse the fine vessels within the brain. Microcatheters are designed with several properties in mind: hydrophilic coating, softness, trackability and stability. Neurovascular catheters are to deliver detachable coils, stents, liquid embolics and pharmaceutical products directly to the brain. They are often used for treating aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), trauma and strokes. Microcatheters are offered with different varieties of tips, which allow physicians to choose the appropriate tip for a specific location in the brain. The devices also vary in diameter, which is measured in French (F) size, where one F is equal to 0.33 mm. Although tip and diameter can vary widely, microcatheters are grouped by guiding systems. There are three types of microcatheters: over-the-wire, flow directed including the new detachable tip versions and guide catheters.

Suture passers are arthroscopic devices that are used to pass sutures through a variety of tissues, such as rotator cuff and labrum. Currently, there are three main types of suture passers available for surgeons: reusable-disposable needle-based suture passers, reusable-penetrating suture passers and disposable-retrieving suture passers.

Drill guides are used during the reconstruction of the ACL and PCL. As the name implies, these devices are used for properly aligning the drill bit for the precise creation of tunnels and holes in boney surfaces. The knee is one of the most susceptible joints to pressure and injury in the human body, as its bending capacity is determined by a complex interaction of rotational and extensional movements. The anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments (ACL/PCL) connect the bones that form the knee and stabilize joint movements to prevent the femur from sliding against the tibia and vice versa.
Injuries to the ACL are quite common. These injuries can be caused by excessive use, physical impact or wear over time. Usually, during ACL/PCL reconstruction, the surgeon drills holes in the tibia in order to hold harvested patellar tendon with fixation devices such as staples and screws, thus reconstructing the ligament.

Spinous Process Fixation Market Analysis | United States | 2019-2025 | MedCore
Several spinal fixation systems exist for stabilizing the spine so that bony fusion can be achieved. The majority of these fixation systems use rods that attach to screws that are threaded into the vertebral bodies or the pedicles. In some cases, plate fixation systems are also used to fuse two adjacent vertebral segments. Current plate fixation systems are designed to function in place of rods and screws, with the advantage of allowing fixation without the need to contour a long rod across multiple segments.
more...Spinal Endoscopy Market Analysis | United States | 2019-2025 | MedCore
Spinal endoscopy can be selected for a number of reasons, including observing epidural anatomy and pathology, targeted epidural delivery of drugs and the illumination and visualization of tissues of the epidural space in the spine for assisting diagnosis. More commonly, however, spinal endoscopy is used as a minimally invasive approach to discectomies, laminectomies and foraminotomies.
Spine endoscopes are visualization instruments that allow for a minimally invasive approach to various procedures and resemble other arthroscope and laparoscope devices. By allowing direct visualization into the spinal canal, these endoscopes facilitate the investigation of nerve compression, inflammation, scarring or abnormalities in the spinal space.
MIS Pedicle Screws Market Analysis | United States | 2019-2025 | MedCore
Pedicle screws provide a means of stabilizing a spinal level during a fusion procedure. The screws themselves do not fixate the levels, but act as firm anchor points that can then be connected with a rod. Pedicle screws can be placed at two or more consecutive spine levels. A short rod is subsequently implanted in order to connect the screws. The screw and rod construct prevents motion at the levels that are being fused.
