VIA Disc NP

About VIA Disc NP

VIA Disc NP is a non-surgical, off-the-shelf, human nucleus pulposus (NP) allograft that is intended to supplement degenerated intervertebral discs. VIA Disc NP is a non-surgical option that can be delivered through a 22G spine needle. The purpose of this injection is to recreate the tissue of the disc to aid in movement and prevent pain.

Age-related wear and tear of the intervertebral disc can cause loss of hydration and degeneration. VIA Disc NP is delivered into the degenerated intervertebral disc to supplement the degenerated intervertebral disc.In-vitro testing of nucleus pulposus tissue demonstrates the ability of the disc to absorb water similar to original nucleus pulposus tissue. Transplanted nucleus pulposus tissue may support biomechanical function of the supplemented disc.

The nucleus pulposus particulate is mixed  together with saline for delivery into your  intervertebral disc. During the procedure, the physician will use fluoroscopy (a computer tomography scan that takes images so that the physician can see where the needle is going). The physician inserts a needle  through the skin and muscle into the center of the intervertebral disc. VIA Disc NP will slowly be delivered into that center.

The VIA Disc NP procedure can be  performed under local anesthesia or moderate sedation may be recommended.

Benefits of VIA Disc NP

VIA Disc NP is a non-surgical procedure that is minimally invasive and can be completed in under an hour. This procedure is an effective and safe means of pain management.

When is VIA Disc NP an option?

VIA Disc NP is intended to replace nucleus pulposus tissue loss in patients due to the degeneration of the intervertebral discs. VIA Disc NP is an option for people that are experiencing increased levels of pain due to degeneration of the intervertebral discs.

Intervertebral discs can deteriorate through normal aging and injury, causing dehydration,  flattening, and loss of natural cushioning.
