The TELIGEN System is indicated to provide minimally invasive access, visualization, illumination, magnification and discectomy of the surgical area of the spine. The TELIGEN Access Probe and TELIGEN Clear are Navigation Ready Instruments and when used with the compatible Universal Navigation Adaptor Set (UNAS) are intended to assist the surgeon in locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. The navigation feature is used in surgical spinal procedures, in which:
• the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and
• reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the pelvis or a vertebrae can be identified relative to the acquired image (CT, MR, 2D fluoroscopic image or 3D fluoroscopic image reconstruction) and/or an image data based model of the anatomy using a navigation system and associated tracking arrays. These procedures include but are not limited to spinal fusion. TELIGEN Clear and TELIGEN Access Probe, when used with UNAS Navigation Rings, can be pre-calibrated with:
• the VELYS Spine System using the VELYS Spine Instrument Arrays,
• the Brainlab Navigation System using the UNAS Arrays. TELIGEN Access Probe in conjunction with UNAS can also be manually calibrated with other navigation systems, using tracking arrays supplied by the navigation system manufacturer. The TELIGEN Access Probe is indicated for stimulation of peripheral motor nerves, including spinal nerve roots, for location and identification during surgery. The Discectomy Navigation Ready Instruments when used with the compatible Universal Navigation Adaptor Set are intended to assist the surgeon in locating anatomical structures to facilitate disc space preparation, including discectomy or bony resection. These are indicated for use in surgical spinal procedures, in which:
• the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and
• reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the pelvis or a vertebrae can be identified relative to the acquired image (CT, MR, 2D fluoroscopic image or 3D fluoroscopic image reconstruction) and/or an image data-based model of the anatomy using a navigation system and associated navigation arrays. These procedures include but are not limited to spinal fusion. The Discectomy Navigation Ready Instruments can be pre-calibrated with the VELYS Spine System (only for TELIGEN Graft Delivery Cannula and the curettes) as well as the Brainlab Navigation System. The Universal Navigation Adaptor Set (UNAS) is intended for use with the compatible DePuy Synthes Navigation Ready Instruments to assist the surgeon in locating anatomical structures in either open or percutaneous procedures. These are indicated for use in surgical spinal procedures, in which:
• the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and
• reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the pelvis or a vertebrae can be identified relative to the acquired image (CT, MR, 2D fluoroscopic image or 3D fluoroscopic image reconstruction) and/or a
