It allows surgeons to select from a range of features including k-wireless technique, a direct Skin-to-Screw placement, a Tap-Shidi approach, and a traditional reusable Jamshidi technique.
According to Premia Spine CEO Ron Sacher, the ProMIS System facilitates speed and saves reprocessing costs due to fewer instruments in the kit and the fewer steps it requires.
Orthopedic Institute of Pennsylvania Dr Steven DeLuca said: "The Direct Skin-to-Screw placement technique saves several steps and reduces x-ray exposure to my patients and me.
"I make my incision, place the screw with an extended k-wire tip at my desired entry point, radiographically confirm orientation, mallet the k-wire tip into the pedicle, and then simply advance my screw as I retract the k-wire into the cannulated screw body."
