Treatments tested in this trial

  • Medical Device - PKS

    Device

    The PKS spine navigation system is for spatial positioning and orientation of surgical instruments during pedicle screw instrumentation in patients undergoing posterior fusion in single or multiple levels.

32 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Medical Device- PathKeeper System (PKS)Experimental treatment 1 intervention
Group B: 2D FluoroscopyActive comparator 1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Accuracy of the screw implantation by Gertzbein-Robbins scale

Mean and STD of Gertzbein-Robbins classification scale based on a low-dose post-operative CT scan

Time frame
Post-operative CT scan to be performed before hospital discharge and evaluation can be done right after or at the end of the of the data collection

Secondary outcomes

1

Evaluate radiation exposure dose and time in the operating room during the procedure in each study arm and comparatively.

Mean and STD Values in milli-gray (mGy) and seconds collected from the c-Arm

Time frame
24 hours after surgery
2

Evaluate time-per-screw for the experimental device arm (PKS) arm.

Operative time per screw

Time frame
Values to be collected during each surgery once the last screw insertion is completed (1-2 hours within the surgery)
