Inspired Spine’s Trident SI Joint Screw System, which manufactured by Advanced Research Medical (ARM), has obtained FDA 510(k) clearance.
The firm’s surgeons recently developed the Trident Sacroiliac Joint Fusion System) which will improve procedure efficiency enough to make surgery durations less than 15 minutes.
"We continue to raise the standard of care for back pain treatment as this SI Joint fusion technique represents another Inspired Spine breakthrough for surgeons and patients alike," stated Inspired Spine CMO Dr. Hamid Abbasi.
Trident uses one main screw and two integrated side screws to deliver three distinct screw approaches into a single trajectory. Its delivery and implant system contains a streamlined multi-use kit, with only a handful of instruments to simplify procedural steps. The simplified kit combines the functionality of a traditional set and multiple instruments into a single screw.
Its main screw delivery sleeve provides a targeting guide for side screw delivery, improving procedure efficiency and optimizing imaging requirements. The single incision and corresponding preplanned fixed trajectory substantially decrease required procedure time and radiation exposure. The system design includes self-tapping graft collection flutes which reduce the need for additional biologic—while delivering the advantage of autologous bone graft.
This advanced technology limits the number of tools the surgeon needs to use for the procedure—reducing prep-time and letting the surgeon operate more efficiently.
