their reasonable or their logical reason to deny it is the FDA has only approved it for two levels.

So I think there's a couple of things we need to do.

We need to probably show that in certain people, three-level arthroplasty is safe and effective and have the FDA acknowledge that.

And the other thing we need to look into more is hybrid.

So when you have somebody who has primarily disc degeneration that you can do an arthroplasty on very well, but maybe another level where they would do better with a fusion, what's the long-term data from a hybrid

uh approach and i know high ridge and uh are looking at uh doing a study where they're doing assessing long-term outcomes after a hybrid approach are you doing a disc replacement and a the continuous level of fusion so that's one study we're looking forward to being part of this year that's awesome and then i was wondering you know what are some of the top trends that you're following in healthcare today

Well, a couple of things.

I am a trustee for an excellent charity called Myelopathy.org, which is set up by people with degenerative cervical myelopathy to help advocate for them, help with diagnosis and help educate people with degenerative cervical myelopathy.

So that group primarily came out of the United Kingdom and

Now, interestingly, the website is growing in popularity in the US.

So more and more people in the US and North America are logging onto the website because they recognize the value.

So I think the patient education and giving people options is really improving.

And if you have people with myelopathy in your clinic, I definitely recommend that you direct them to the myelopathy.org website where you can get

very balanced, informative information for your patients.

And it's a great resource for anyone who tries to help people with degenerative cervical myelopathy or who has a family member with degenerative cervical myelopathy.

So the myelopathy.org charity is really growing in the US this year.

I think there's going to be a lot of work helping with people with spinal cord injuries using different techniques.

I'm looking forward to hopefully more data.

We're part of the

Dr. Alan Levy from University of Miami, his hypothermia trial, where people with acute cervical spinal cord injuries will be randomized to cooling or standard of care treatment that has been running now for a number of years.
