Bolt brings iPhone tech to spine surgery: Vanguards of Health Care

Bolt Navigation has shrunk the use of a navigation system for spine surgery into an Apple iOS device, an iPhone, utilizing the gyroscope-on-chip technology to make spinal fusion cases more accurate in any surgery setting, CEO Patrick West explains to Bloomberg Intelligence.

In this Vanguards of Health Care podcast episode embedded below, West sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson for an in-depth interview 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 the ambulatory surgical centers, who can perform simple spinal fusion cases without a robot they may not afford.
