Triangle Orthopaedics is currently seeking patients for participation in an artificial disc trial. Patients who wish to participate in this trial must be referred by one of the surgeons. If eligible, the patient will receive either the FDA-approved Charité artificial disc, or the Spinal Motions Kineflex lumbar disc. For patients electing to participate in the cervical trial, they will receive either the Spinal Motions Kineflex-C artificial cervical disc or cervical fusion. Participants must be 18-60 years of age, and have at least six months of documented treatment for back (lumbar) or neck (cervical) pain.
