The InSpace™ System is indicated for rotator cuff syndrome as it alleviates pain in patients. The InSpace™ System has the CE mark and is commercially available in Europe.
The InSpace™ System is designed to create a physical barrier between tissues in the subacromial space. The biodegradable balloon acts as a spacer between the acromion and the humeral head, allowing smooth gliding and frictionless movement between the two bones, emulating the function of the original bursa.
Implantation is simple as the device can be deployed using minimally invasive techniques such as arthroscopy or mini-open surgery. InSpace™ deployment, from introduction of the device to sealing and retraction of the deployer, usually takes less than 10 minutes. The procedures utilizes a single-use device introduced with a standard arthroscopic technique.
