AUDUBON, Pa., Nov. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Globus Medical, Inc. (NYSE: GMED), a leading musculoskeletal solutions company, today announced the commercial launch of the ExcelsiusHub™ navigation system. ExcelsiusHub™ joins the expansive ecosystem of Excelsius™ technologies and is designed to elevate the standard for freehand navigation.

Freehand navigation provides surgeons with real-time visualization of instrument placement, to reduce the reliance on X-ray imaging during spine surgery. This also facilitates accurate placement of screws and interbody spacer implants and may reduce OR radiation when compared to conventional fluoroscopy. ExcelsiusHub™ offers advantages over other navigation systems through features designed to enhance the safety and reproducibility of spine navigation such as real-time patient array monitoring, tissue-sparing drills, and registration flexibility.

“This launch extends the capabilities and reach of our Excelsius™ ecosystem,” said Dan Scavilla, president and chief executive officer of Globus Medical. “We now have a technology platform that fits a very wide variety of surgeons’ and hospitals’ needs, with design and footprint suited for both the hospital and ASC setting. We look forward to continuing to support our customers with technology that is designed for less invasive procedures with potentially lower radiation exposure.”

“We have had great success with the adoption of the ExcelsiusGPS™ robot and Excelsius3D™ imaging systems in spinal surgery at our institution,” said Dr. John O’Toole, Professor of Neurosurgery, Co-Director of Comprehensive Spine Tumor Clinic and of Neuroscience Service Line, and Director of Neurosurgery Spine Fellowship, Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. “The addition of the ExcelsiusHub™ further broadens our options within the intraoperative navigation platform for implant placement accuracy and surgical efficiency over a wide array of cases.”

ExcelsiusHub™ offers the following differentiated functionality:

• Elevated safety features that pair navigational accuracy with innovative features designed to enhance patient safety such as patient array shift tracking and navigation of the DuraPro™ Oscillating System;
• Imaging versatility with three distinct workflows: Automatic registration with Excelsius3D™, CT to fluoroscopy merging for preoperative implant planning and quick intraoperative re-registration, and intraoperative 2D navigation; and
• Navigation of best-in-class Globus instruments and implants for a complete procedural solution from the cervical spine to the sacrum.

“ExcelsiusHub™ has been a big advancement for our practice and for patients in the Dayton area,” said Dr. Ryan Godinsky, a fellowship-trained spine surgeon at Mayfield Brain & Spine in Ohio. “We are able to work faster with navigation because it offers enhanced accuracy as compared to conventional techniques. One of the things I like about it is the alert when accuracy may be compromised. ExcelsiusHub™ is intuitive for surgeons and medical staff, so there is little wasted time. Overall, this is a technological enhancement that may result in more efficient operating rooms and surgical solutions for patients.”

Dr. Norah Foster of Miami Valley Spine Center in Ohio said, “ExcelsiusHub™ supports a variety of procedures, from minimally invasive to complex spinal deformity surgeries, enabling us to enhance surgical care and optimize treatment for many spine patients at Miami Valley Hospital South. Our goal has always been to do the right surgery for the right patient for the right reason. ExcelsiusHub™ is where innovation meets accuracy, giving us the right tool to elevate spinal surgical excellence for our patients.”
