A mini-cushion ‘Device for Intervertebral Assisted Motion’ (DIAM) is a revolutionary way to treat back pain. The device – made from a soft gel and H-shaped is implanted between the vertebrae. Surgeons make a small incision approximately 2cm in length across the spine, and prepare an area for implant by removing relevant soft and bony tissue.
Research on 68 patients between the ages of 23 and 75 concluded that – not only does the implant act as a shock absorber, but it also restores the normal joint mechanism thus easing pain.
