Medical device firm ArthroCare has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its Parallax Integrated Delivery System (IDS), an enclosed device used for mixing and delivery of cement during vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty procedures.
IDS uses a self-contained cement cartridge that contains precise amounts of monomer and polymer and a mating reservoir, according to the Sunnyvale, CA-based firm. ArthroCare will be showcasing the system at the upcoming annual scientific meeting of the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) in Toronto.
