In this MedInsights Unleashed episode, we explore an emerging treatment for chronic degenerative disc disease called Hydrafil. Our guests are Bill Nyland, CEO of ReGelTec Inc., and Dr. Anthony Lowman, PhD, Professor of Biomedical Engineering and Co-Founder/Chief Medical Officer at ReGelTec. They walk us through the science, creation, and development of this injectable hydrogel technology. Hydrafil is designed to help patients with lumbar back pain by restoring hydration and pressure inside the spinal disc, supporting its structure, and potentially reducing inflammation and pain.
The episode discusses the challenges of developing a new biomedical device, what the early clinical experience has shown, and the ongoing trials aimed at offering a less invasive option for people living with chronic back pain.
