Low Back Pain & The Sacroiliac Joint - Patient Seminar

Up to 85% of all people have lower back pain (LBP) at some point in life.(1) The Sacroiliac (SI) joint is responsible for up to 30% of lower back pain.(2) Yet, many physicians fail to consider the SI joint as a pain generator when evaluating low back pain.

In this informative patient seminar, Dr. A. Nick Shamie will discuss:
• What are Sacroiliac Joint Disorders
• How Sacroiliac Joint Disorders can mimic sciatica-like pain (disc herniation)
• How to accurately diagnosis sacroiliac joint disorders
• What are your treatment options

It is commonly reported in clinical literature that up to 25% of low back pain is caused by the SI joint. Once non-surgical treatment options have been tried and do not provide relief, your surgeon may consider other options, including surgery.

SI-BONE, Inc. has developed a minimally invasive surgical (MIS), innovative, patented, implant system for certain sacroiliac (SI) joint problems. The iFuse Implant System® consists of titanium implants and associated surgical instruments.
