NuVasive announces the launch of new spinal trauma porfolio

NuVasive Inc. announced the launch of the Reline trauma portfolio, which serves as the company’s foundation to address the approximate $100 million U.S. spine trauma fixation market, according to a company press release.

“The launch of Reline trauma is a key milestone in our continued commitment to industry-leading innovation that delivers untapped clinical and economic value for our surgeon partners,” Jason Hannon, president and chief operating officer of NuVasive, said in the release. “Reline trauma will help define the standard of trauma care for spine, with its ability to dramatically reduce time and provide complete versatility intraoperatively. The system will be the foundation of our trauma portfolio as we invest further in this key market.”

Reline trauma reportedly allows surgeons to customize implant types, supports various techniques and allows surgeons to enhance their ability to dial-in fracture correction with a dual rack system. According to the release, use of the system allows one surgeon — rather than two surgeons — to complete the procedure, which may help reduce the total cost of the procedure.

According to the release, the Reline trauma fracture frame instrumentation offers controlled fracture correction during the procedure, either with a rod or without the rod present in the construct. The system also allows surgeons to place different rod diameters and materials either before or after fracture correction.
