22.11.2022 16:00:00 EET | Business Wire | Press release
Mainstay Medical Holdings plc today announced the publication of data from a single center, real-world study with one-year clinical follow-up of patients selected from the ReActiv8®-C study. Patients implanted with ReActiv8 at Klinikum Itzehoe were consecutively included into this cohort if they presented with back pain ≥6 and no prior lumbar surgery. The one-year results, published in World Neurosurgery, showed that a majority of the 44 patients followed up with demonstrated statistically significant improvements in pain (NRS), disability (ODI) and quality of life (EQ-5D-5L).

This interim analysis indicates that the response to ReActiv8 for these patients is durable and the benefits improve over time, consistent with both a restorative mechanism of action and the ReActiv8-B randomized clinical trial results.
Dr. Med. Ardeshir Ardeshiri, Head physician of the Spine Surgery Section of the Clinic for Trauma Surgery and Orthopedics, Klinikum Itzehoe, said: “These favorable real-world data are consistent with the ReActiv8-B study, which is extremely important for me in adopting new technologies. I am excited to continue offering restorative neurostimulation with ReActiv8 for my patients with multifidus dysfunction resulting in chronic axial low back pain.”
Jason Hannon, CEO of Mainstay Medical, said: "These real-world results further validate ReActiv8’s restorative mechanism of action, which treats a primary underlying cause of mechanical chronic lower back pain, multifidus dysfunction. German physicians have been some of our foremost implanters of ReActiv8, and we look forward to continuing to make the therapy more broadly available to patients in this region.”

Forrester: Three Years Into GenAI, Enterprises Are Still Chasing Its True Transformative Value2.4.2026 17:00:00 EEST | Press release
According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) latest report, Accelerate Your AI Voyage, most enterprises are struggling to turn growing AI adoption and investment into measurable business impact. One of the key factors holding businesses back is low artificial intelligence quotient (AIQ) — Forrester’s measure of AI aptitude — with many employees lacking a clear understanding of how to use AI. Other barriers include an overemphasis on productivity-focused use cases, difficulty measuring impact, and siloed adoption within individual functions. While these challenges can leave firms frozen in doubt or indecision, the wait-and-see approach to AI adoption is no longer viable. To unlock AI’s full potential, organizations need to focus on four key areas: Define the business outcomes and success metrics for what they want AI to achieve; identify specific use cases for AI deployment aligned to those business outcomes; establish a structured runway to plan, test, and strategically time the deployment
