Stryker Corp. is showcasing its new Bone Vac autologous bone dust collector this week at the North American Spine Society (NASS) virtual meeting.
The Bone Vac autologous bone dust collector conveniently collects drilled bone dust for use as autograft material during ortho/spine, cranial, otology or other procedures where bone regeneration is desired. Bone Vac cleanly ejects all collected material via one push with no inverting mesh baskets or scraping out loose bone dust. The result is a putty-like consistency enabling efficient shaping and placement. Bone Vac can be used multiple times during a case to capture all available bone dust.
“Bone Vac gives our customers the opportunity to maximize the regenerative benefits of gold standard, autologous bone, without disrupting their existing workflow,” said Jim Marucci, General Manager of Stryker’s Neurosurgical business. “We look forward to the positive impact this solution will have on our customers and their patients.”
Bone dust can contain viable bone-forming cells and expression markers, even after drilling, and reflects osteogenic, osteoinductive and osteoconductive potential,1-6 making it a valuable adjunct to other bone growth agents.
