Bolt Brings iOS Tech to Spine Surgery

Bolt Navigation has shrunk the use of a navigation system for spine surgery into an Apple iOS device, using the gyroscope-on-chip technology to make spinal fusion cases more accurate in any surgery setting, CEO Patrick West says. In this episode of Bloomberg Intelligence’s Vanguards of Health Care podcast, West sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson to talk about how the Bolt Navigation Unit leverages the gyroscope and an X-ray acquired once the patient is positioned for pedicle screw placement, with no special imaging required during the procedure. West goes on to say how this technology can penetrate ambulatory surgical centers, that can perform simple spinal fusion cases without a robot they may not be able to affordSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
