SeaSpine Holdings Corporation, a company focused on surgical solutions for the treatment of spinal disorders, announced the limited commercial launch and completion of initial surgeries of the Mariner MIS Wayfinder System.
Mariner MIS Wayfinder is a novel, one step, k-wireless screw delivery system for pedicle screw fixation. Mariner MIS Wayfinder eliminates reliance on traditional guidewires for percutaneous screw placement by providing a fully-integrated, surgeon-led solution that enables real-time feedback. This most recent launch reflects SeaSpine’s continued expansion of its Mariner platform and builds on the momentum from the limited commercial launch of the Mariner Adult Deformity System.
The Mariner MIS Wayfinder System embodies the design principles integral to the Mariner core philosophy, providing clinicians an innovative and intuitive approach to pedicle screw fixation, whether using traditional fluoroscopy or SeaSpine’s 7D FLASH Navigation System. “In the initial cases, the Mariner MIS Wayfinder System has already demonstrated significant efficiencies, particularly when paired with 7D technology,” said Shaeffer Bannigan, Senior Director of Product Development.
“Mariner MIS Wayfinder provides a one-step posterior percutaneous pedicle solution that eliminates need for stepwise pedicle access trocars and guidewires,” stated Dr. Erik Westerlund, MD, FACS, Chief of Surgery at Jack Hughston Memorial Hospital. “Wayfinder offers access to this new level of operative efficiency without attempting to over-engineer the surgeon out of the procedure. I find it to be yet another example of SeaSpine solutions aligning with my strategic and technical goal as a surgeon to drive the best possible outcomes for my patients.”
