Introduction
The study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled clinical trial that will compare the safety and effectiveness of the CerviCore™ Intervertebral Disc to anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) with a rigid plate for radicular symptoms associated with loss of disc height, disc/osteophyte complex, or herniated disc at a single cervical spine level.

FlexiCore™ Intervertebral Disc Study Summary
This is a multi-center, prospective, randomized, controlled study comparing the safety and effectiveness of the FlexiCore™ Intervertebral Disc to spinal fusion surgery for the treatment of pain associated with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at a single level in the lumbo-sacral spine (L1-S1).

The Wallis Stabilization Trial is now closed.

Desert Institute for Spine Care has been selected to participate in the Wallis Stabilization System Clinical Trial.

Introduction to the Wallis Stabilization System
The Wallis Normalization System is a non-fusion, spinal stabilization device that is currently limited by US law to investigational use within the US. The Wallis clinical study is a multi-center, prospective, randomized study comparing the safety and effectiveness of the Wallis device to the latest non-surgical treatment regimen including medication, physical therapy and spinal injections. The Wallis System is designed to help with the pain caused by degenerative disc disease (DDD) by stabilizing the lumbar spine without a fusion procedure.

Introduction
The coflex® Dynamic Interspinous Stabilization Device Clinical Trial is designed to compare the safety and effectiveness of a new way to treat spinal stenosis. This trial is a multi-center, prospective, randomized controlled study that will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of lumbar laminotomy decompression augmented with the implantation of the coflex device as compared to the most common treatment of spinal stenosis; lumbar laminotomy decompression, augmented with pedicle screw fixation and fusion.
