Abstract
The present invention relates to an instrument for band coupling between spinous processes that comprises: a needle unit that is inserted through a cutaway insertion portion of a patient's abdomen and is discharged through a cutaway discharge portion of the abdomen while passing between a spinous process protruding from the spine and a neighboring spinous process; and a band unit that is detachably coupled to an end portion of the needle unit and has a predetermined level of tension, the band unit being disposed between the spinous process and the neighboring spinous process, outside the spinous process, and outside the neighboring spinous process to secure the spinous process and the neighboring spinous process together. Thanks to the relatively cheap and simple configuration, it is possible to effectively conduct a procedure irrespective of proficiency, acquire an optimal procedure result, and cope with various patients' body types. In addition, the instrument can be maintained to be firmly secured after a procedure and can allow a micro-motion, thereby providing a state similar to the original spine to a patient.
