    Medtronic Launches Mazor X Stealth Edition for Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery

    First U.S. patients treated using system at Norton Healthcare and Reston Hospital Center.

    Medtronic Launches Mazor X Stealth Edition for Robotic-Assisted Spine Surgery
    Medtronic plc01.28.19
    Medtronic plc has announced the first U.S. patients treated with the Mazor X Stealth Edition for spine surgery following its recent commercial launch. The Mazor X Stealth Edition offers a fully-integrated procedural solution for surgical planning, workflow, execution and confirmation. The system was first used at Norton Healthcare in Louisville, Ky., and Reston Hospital Center in Reston, Va.
     
    "It is rare that huge sectors of technology such as robotics and navigation merge into a sole platform as found in the Mazor X Stealth Edition. Combined, these may provide more predictable and reliable execution of our procedure workflows," remarked Jeffrey Gum, M.D., orthopedic spine surgeon at Norton Leatherman Spine. "Computerized surgical planning, 3D assessment of spine anatomy, robotic guidance and live navigation feedback are designed to provide a higher degree of accuracy throughout the surgical procedure."
     
    Co-developed between Medtronic and the recently acquired Mazor Robotics, the Mazor X Stealth Edition seamlessly incorporates Stealth software technology into the Mazor X robotic-assisted surgery platform to deliver workflow predictability and flexibility through real-time image guidance, visualization and navigation informed by interactive 3D planning and information systems.
     
    "The marriage of robotics and navigation represents the future of computerized planning and execution in spine surgery. Robotics and navigation have both been shown to improve accuracy and precision in spine surgery," commented Christopher R. Good, M.D. F.A.C.S., spine surgeon at Reston Hospital Center, director of Scoliosis & Spinal Deformity and president of The Virginia Spine Institute. "The Mazor X Stealth Edition is a revolutionary new technology that uses cutting-edge software to plan the surgical procedure, then uses a robotic arm to guide implants and instruments through the steps of the surgical procedure with precision, while simultaneously using real-time imaging feedback to ensure the plan is being carried out as desired."
     
    The Mazor X Stealth Edition was cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in November 2018. The system is now available in the U.S. and is expected to launch in key regions throughout the year.
     
    "As part of our Surgical Synergy strategy, we believe Mazor X Stealth Edition will accelerate the advancement and adoption of robotic-assisted and navigated surgical technologies in spine," said Geoff Martha, executive vice president and president of the Restorative Therapies Group at Medtronic. "Medtronic is committed to transforming the future of spine care by offering procedural solutions that integrate implants, biologics and enabling technologies like navigation, 3D imaging, robotics, and powered surgical tools."
