In this episode of The MedTech Insider, host Parker Snedden welcomes two powerhouse educators—Jason Montgomery, PA, and Mort Rabii, NP—for a deep dive into Chronic Degenerative Instability.
What exactly is it? Why should advanced practitioners care? And how do you identify it in real-world clinic settings?
Jason and Mort unpack:
How to recognize Chronic degenerative instability (CDI) clinically and on imaging
Why many patients fail conservative care and short-term pain management
How APP's can connect patient symptoms, radiographic findings, and payer requirements
The role of minimally invasive fusion technologies like Minuteman in halting the degenerative cascade
Along the way, you’ll hear their career journeys, stories from the field, and a few fun rapid-fire moments you won’t want to miss.
If you’re an APP, physician, or anyone navigating spine care innovation—this episode will change how you think about Chronic Degenerative Instability.
