SpineGuard announced that it has obtained regulatory clearance from COFEPRIS to sell its Cannulated PediGuard device for minimally invasive spine surgery in Mexico.

"The regulatory approval of Cannulated PediGuard expands our product offering in the important market of Mexico, where minimally invasive spine surgery is progressing rapidly,” Pierre Jerome, chief executive officer and co-founder of SpineGuard, stated in a company press release. “Cannulated PediGuard is designed to facilitate and secure this challenging procedure, providing real-time information that empowers spine surgeons to accurately place pedicle screws while avoiding cortical breaches and reducing their exposure to radiation as a result of less dependence on fluoroscopy.”
