SAIF: Sacroiliac Fusion Study

Terminated
Conditions
Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction
Interventions
Device: SImmetry Implant
Registration Number
NCT02064322
Lead Sponsor
Zyga Technology, Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of the SAIF study is to evaluate the SImmetry Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System for fusion and pain reduction of the SI joint.

Detailed Description

This is a prospective, non-randomized, single center study to collect data on fusion and pain reduction following implantation of the SImmetry device. Up to 15 total subjects will be implanted and followed for 24 months. Data will be collected pre-operatively, at implant, discharge, and at specified follow-up time points (6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months, 24 months.)
