Centinel Spine announced it will highlight its new prodisc Match-the-Disc cervical and lumbar total disc replacement (TDR) systems at this week’s North American Spine Society (NASS) annual meeting.
The prodisc Match-the-Disc systems will be featured at Centinel Spine's "Surgical Stadium" event to be held on the NASS exhibit floor. The educational program will be led by Prof. Dr. Rudolf Bertagnoli, Dr. John F. Hall, Dr. Osama Ahmed, and Dr. Ehsan Jazini—demonstrating the value of intraoperative implant optionality through a cadaveric surgical implantation with the company's two latest cervical TDR technologies launched in the U.S., prodisc C Vivo and prodisc C SK.
According to Centinel Spine, the prodisc technology is the only cervical and lumbar TDR system that allows matching the disc to the needs of the patient and surgeon. Dr. John Hall, Orthopedic Spine Surgeon with Flagstaff Bone & Joint, Flagstaff, Arizona, will moderate the Company's Surgical Stadium program.
According to Dr. Hall, "I appreciate that Centinel Spine continues to support total disc arthroplasty education through programs like this NASS Surgical Stadium event. Advancing cervical and lumbar disc arthroplasty requires continued engagement, and we have assembled an experienced group of U.S. and international faculty to support this program and provide a unique perspective to the audience. Prof. Dr. Rudolf Bertagnoli, one of the co-inventors of prodisc, is a great addition to the program and will lend his perspective after 25 years of utilizing disc arthroplasty to provide mobility and restore natural function to his patients. There are definite benefits to the new cervical and lumbar prodisc implants that Centinel Spine has recently introduced in the U.S. Having the ability to intraoperatively select the implant that best matches the needs of the patient is a true benefit. Hopefully, through this Surgical Stadium program, we will be able to demonstrate that to a broader group of surgeons."
"Continued surgeon education through the NASS Surgical Stadium type of event is critical as the total disc replacement market rapidly accelerates," added Centinel Spine CEO Steve Murray. "There are clear benefits to the intraoperative optionality that the prodisc cervical and lumbar systems both provide. The NASS organization has provided an excellent new forum to deliver educational content and we are appreciative to have the support of an extremely experienced global faculty."
