DuraStat LLC

DuraStat LLC manufactures a specialized surgical device for dural repair during spine surgery. The DuraStat instrument is designed to address incidental durotomy (ID)—a common complication occurring in approximately 10% of spine procedures and up to 25% of lumbar revisions—by enabling gold-standard sutured dural repairs with improved efficiency and quality. The device consolidates surgical steps and automates suture passage via button activation, reducing procedural variation and tissue disruption while maintaining optimal needle placement and suture control. Clinical evidence supports DuraStat's ability to reduce CSF leak incidence (9–21% in untreated cases) through consistent, high-quality closure techniques. The instrument is engineered with a smooth curved tip that retains needle and suture, enabling precise positioning and predictable needle passage without supination. DuraStat partners with hospitals, health systems, and neurosurgeons to improve patient outcomes in spine surgery. The company is based in Austin, TX, and operates through direct sales and order channels.
