Aero-C’s anchors are designed to draw the vertebral bodies towards the implant to create compression.3 Bladed implant Screw based implant Normalized effective life The unique anchor design of Aero-C demonstrated better resistance to physiological motion than a commercially available screw based implant.4 Aero-C Screw based implant Axial torsion Flexion extension Lateral bending Effective life is defined as the number of cycles at which a 10% average increase over the baseline ROM was observed. Aero-C was shown to be more than twice as strong as a commercially available screw based and...
