Captiva Spine entered into a long-term exclusive strategic partnership with REMEX Medical, developer of navigation and robotics technologies located in Taiwan, for real-time 3D spine navigation with future developments in practical robotic solutions.
For hospitals and Ambulatory Surgery Centers throughout the U.S., this technology will serve as a platform to expand Captiva’s products and services with enhanced enabling technology to support MIS technology. Specifically, Captiva Spine will be starting with their CapLOX Pedicle Screws, TowerLOX-EXT MIS Extended Tab Pedicle Screws and TransFasten Posterior SI joint fusion system.
The navigation system has FDA 510(k) clearance and is available for commercial use. The navigation unit is a small on-site device for more facilities seeking to take advantage of the benefits of readily available, easy-to-use spine navigation. The platform utilizes preoperative CT scans and rapid intraoperative registration for real-time 3D navigation with limited radiation exposure to staff and patients.
Captiva Spine is planning to expand the system’s capabilities to include robotics. Both platforms are intended to improve the reproducibility and accuracy of applicable procedures to meet the growing demand for enabling solutions worldwide.
“This platform for spine navigation helps fulfill our commitment to being a clinical and economical solution with advanced enabling technology for spine care,” said Dale Mitchell, President of Captiva Spine. “We plan to have a technically advanced navigation platform to improve spine procedural efficiency and be economically feasible for the growing number of ASCs and specialty hospitals throughout the United States,” Mitchell continued.
Nelson Lin, CEO of REMEX Medical, said, “we are very pleased to enter the U.S. marketplace with our new strategic partner, Captiva Spine. We share an enthusiasm and commitment to providing ongoing advancements for the betterment of spine care. REMEX has been researching and developing this platform for eight years with proven clinical performance.”
