VERTICALE GPS Instruments

The VERTICALE® GPS Instruments are indicated to be used during the preparation and placement of VERTICALE® pedicle screws during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open or minimally invasive procedures for skeletally mature patients, where reference to a rigid anatomical structure such as vertebra can be identified. These instruments are designed for use with the Globus ExcelsiusGPS™ system, which is indicated for use as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures and for the spatial positioning and orientation of an instrument holder or guide tube to be used by surgeons for navigating and/or guiding compatible surgical instruments in open or percutaneous procedures provided that the required fiducial markers and rigid patient anatomy can be identified on CT scans or fluoroscopy. The system is indicated for the placement of spinal and orthopedic bone screws.

VERTICALE GPS Instruments are non-sterile, reusable instruments including awls, drills, taps, probes, burrs, and screw drivers that can be operated manually. These instruments are intended to be used with the Globus Medical Excelsius GPS® Robotic Navigation Platform to aid in implantation of Silony Medical pedicle screws (VERTICALE Posterior Spinal Fixation System and VERTICALE Cervical System). The instruments are manufactured from medical grade stainless steel.
