ORTHOsoft® Fluorospine™ Navigation SystemProvides greater precision and helps reduce re-operation rates |
|
|
Precision is needed in spine surçery because of its proximity and relation to the spinal cord. Navigation helps the surgeon navigate screws inside the pedicles, thereby avoiding the spinal cord and other nerves. This not only helps to perform a minimally invasive procedure, it allows visualization of the exact incision and screw placement and precisely tracks surgical instruments in relation to the anatomy. Accurate, unique and reliable the NEW ORTHOsoft Fluorospine Navigation System offers several advantages to surgeons, patients, hospitals and the healthcare system. |

For the surgeon:
- Fluorospine Navigation System is the only application that enables referencing of up to three vertebrae at once, allowing simultaneous navigation
- Studies show that 95% of screws are accurately placed using navigation, helping to reduce re-operation rates.(1)
- The real-time overlay of surgical instruments on fluoroscopic images’ feature reduces radiation exposure for the surgical team and patient.
- Fluorospine provides an automatic sequencing feature, enabling to step forward systematically throughout the procedure
- It has been developed by a surgeon, for surgeons
For the patient:
- Navigating with Fluorospine Navigation System can help achieve faster healing time, equivalent or better relief from pain and neurological problems, and quicker return to a functional status.
For the hospital & healthcare provider:
- Clinical studies show that navigation can reduce re-operation rates resulting from neurological injury during spine surgery thereby avoiding extra casts far the hospital and the overall healthcare system.(1)
