About VyBrate VBR

The VyBrate VBR is a creative device merging the osseointegration properties of the OsteoVy lattice structure and OXPEKK material, exclusive to Vy Spine. This best-in-class device is the first ever vertebral body replacement device to enter the market and boost the recognition with the help of OsteoVy PEKK, which is established in collaboration with Oxford Performance Materials.

President of Product Development at Vy Spine, Bret Berry, said, “This clearance from the FDA for VyBrate VBR is the recent news to take close to approvals for Vy Spine implants. Following this, the unique qualities will be performable to promote our exclusive OsteoVy PEKK designs at the core.”

“We are continuously researching the exceptional characteristics of OXPEKK, following which we have illustrated that this brilliant discovery is satisfying, but PEEK still feels short. Therefore, we’re expanding with OXPEKK material and continuing our valuable collaboration with Oxford Performance Materials.”

Difference between PEEK and OsteoVy lattice

PEKK implants are different from the standard PEEK implants, as the PEKK implants have recorded the bone ingrowth with no specific fibrotic tissue membrane formation, and radiographic interference. It has also illustrated a rise in bony apposition over time, and comparatively, a huge push-out power was spotted against PEEK. Alongside, Vy Spine’s exclusive OsteoVy lattice brings ease in bony wicking and integration, as PEKK is a hydrophilic material that holds more power as an interbody implant.
