Of these devices, 13 are in active development, while the remaining 16 are in an inactive stage of development. There are eight products in the early stages of development, and the remaining five are in the late stages of development.

Pedicle Screws are placed above and below the vertebrae in a spinal fusion procedure to add extra support and strength during the healing process. These systems are made up of stainless steel, titanium alloys and unalloyed titanium. The device consists of a combination of anchors (such as bolts, hooks, and/or screws); interconnection mechanisms incorporating nuts, screws, longitudinal members (such as plates, rods, and/or plate/rod combinations) and transverse connectors. Pedicle screw systems are available for cervical or thoraco-lumbar procedures, and for different levels of surgery. One-level and two-level pedicle screw systems are available for cervical fusion procedures where as one, two, three and four-level and higher-level pedicle screw systems are available for thoraco-lumbar fusion procedures. One-level pedicle screw system consists of two rods and four screws used to fuse two vertebrae (one-level surgery), two-level pedicle screw system consists of two rods and six screws used to fuse three vertebrae (two-level surgery), and three-level pedicle screw system consists of two rods and eight screws used to fuse four vertebrae (three level surgery) and four level and higher-level pedicle screw systems consist of two rods and ten screws or more. One unit refers to one pedicle screw system.

Innovations in the medical devices sector are linked to the development of new approaches, processes, or technologies for treating, diagnosing, and managing disease in response to demand from healthcare for better patient outcomes and reduce healthcare costs.

Based on an analysis of GlobalData’s Medical Intelligence Center pipeline product database, these actively developed Pedicle Screw Systems pipeline devices are all expected to be approved within the next ten years.

Currently, private organizations, public entities and institutions are working on the development of Pedicle Screw Systems devices. Overall, most of these Pedicle Screw Systems pipeline devices are being developed by private entities.

Key players involved in the active development of Pedicle Screw Systems include University of Toledo, NuVasive, Spinal Resources, Medtronic, MI4 Spine, MicroPort Scientific, N8 Medical, NEOS Surgery, Nexilis and Corelink.
