About this trial
A Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up (PMCF) Study to collect clinical data on safety and performance of all TEKNIMED Spine range of products: SPINEFIX, HIGH V+, OPACITY+ and F20 bone cements and mixing and injection systems, and all their private labels.
TEKNIMED bone cements are legacy products, some marketed for more than 10 years. Their performance and safety have already been demonstrated by Post-Market Surveillance and previous clinical studies. The current Post-Market Clinical Follow-Up study aims to confirm these claims by collecting data in a "real-life" setting.
The study is a retrospective and prospective global, single arm, non-controlled, multicentric, prospective observational study. Patients will be followed as per local standard medical care of the sites.
