iVAS Inflatable Vertebral Augmentation System
iVAS™ Inflatable Vertebral Augmentation System
Simple. Certain. Defined.
The iVAS inflatable balloon system meets your needs for procedure customization and accuracy based on fracture anatomy and presentation. Featuring a stiff distal catheter for easy insertion into a flexible proximal catheter, iVAS has the features you’d expect for treatment of VCFs. iVAS measures up to your expectations and your expertise.
The iVAS System used during vertebral augmentation utilizes a balloon catheter to create a void in the collapsed vertebra, helping to allow for controlled and contained cement delivery. The hardened cement creates an internal cast that stabilizes the fracture thereby alleviating pain in approximately 90% of patients.
Features
Balloon Catheter
- Stiff distal balloon catheter provides rigidity for smooth insertion.
- Flexible proximal catheter allows for easy maneuverability.
- The radiopaque markers on the balloon catheter help facilitate accurate visualization and placement of the balloon.
Access Cannula / Stylet
- The hand drill cuts cleanly through cancellous bone to create a channel for balloon placement.
- Graduation markings on the access cannula assist in measuring needle depth.

Indications For Use
The Stryker iVAS Inflatable Vertebral Augmentation System is intended to be used for the reduction of fractures and/or creation of a void in cancellous bone in the spine. This includes use during percutaneous vertebral augmentation.[1]
The system is to be used with cleared spinal Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cements indicated for use during percutaneous vertebral augmentation procedures, such as kyphoplasty.[1]
Contraindications
- Instability of posterior wall and/or pedicles
- Infection
- Severe bleeding
- Known allergies to bone cement
- Pregnancy
- Fractures in which more than 68% of vertebral height is lost
