Pulse (platform for spinal surgery)

2021: Start Selling

In early August 2021, the company NuVasive began selling a surgical platform for spinal surgery Pulse. According to the developers, Pulse combines many tools and technologies on a single platform, simplifying all types of operations.

The Pulse platform received its first regulatory permissions in 2018, but the manufacturer decided to continue configuring and updating its technology to deploy sales only when the new system fully reveals its potential. Pulse includes tools to improve screw fitting accuracy, spinal alignment and neuromonitoring. It also connects to the Bendini tool from NuVasive, which provides automated instructions as part of a particular patient's surgery.

Pulse for any spinal surgery has entered the market

Now surgeons will be able to freely use various technologies to solve a huge number of clinical problems from a single platform, "said NuVasive CEO J. Christopher Barry. - This is the culmination of years of research and development that helped us create a surgical platform that improves both clinical and financial outcomes.

The system is not only integrated with various imaging platforms, such as the Siemens Cios Spin C-type mobile X-ray machine, but is also equipped with technologies that improve the quality of the images. Thus, the platform reduces the level of irradiation required to obtain high-quality data during the operation.

The entire surgical team can access the universal platform wirelessly NuVasive before, during and after the procedure. In addition, the system will be constantly updated taking into account future developments in the field of robotics and other intelligent tools.^[1]
