The FDA cleared Vincennes, France-based SpineGuard's PediGuard Threaded DSG device.
Here are four highlights:
1. The PediGuard is intended for open or minimally invasive approaches for pedicle screw insertion.
2. The device includes a single-use DSG pin embedded with a bipolar sensor.
3. Surgeons insert the DSG pin into the cannula of the threaded shaft and connect it to the electronic processer.
4. SpineGuard develops and markets disposable medical devices for spine surgeries.
"In line with healthcare systems' expectations of better clinical outcomes and surgical efficiency, SpineGuard continues to bring real-time digital technology to the operating room," said Pierre Jérôme, co-founder and CEO, SpineGuard.
