WEST CHESTER, PA — Centinel Spine®, LLC, a leader in spinal device technology, recently announced a significant achievement: the completion of its 5,000th surgical procedure in the United States using the prodisc® C Vivo and prodisc C SK Cervical Total Disc Replacement (TDR) System. This milestone underscores the rapid adoption and effectiveness of the company’s latest innovation in spine care, the Match-the-Disc™ system, which was introduced to the market in the fourth quarter of 2022.
The company reported an impressive nearly 90% growth in its U.S. prodisc cervical business in 2023 compared to the previous year, attributing this success to the expanded access granted to surgeons for the new prodisc C Vivo and prodisc C SK system. Remarkably, the journey from 2,500 to 5,000 procedures took only half the time required to reach the initial milestone, highlighting the accelerating pace of adoption among spine care professionals.
The prodisc C Vivo and prodisc C SK are integral components of Centinel Spine’s Match-the-Disc™ System, which has gained traction among over 600 surgeons nationwide. This system offers a range of implant options, allowing for intraoperative selection tailored to each patient’s unique anatomical needs. The high rate of repeat usage by surgeons—nearly 75%—indicates strong surgeon satisfaction and confidence in the system’s ability to address various spinal conditions with precision.
Dr. J. Alex Sielatycki, an orthopedic spine surgeon at the Steamboat Orthopedic & Spine Institute in Steamboat Springs, Colorado, praised the prodisc cervical system for its versatility and adaptability to different patient anatomies, highlighting its value in clinical practice.
Centinel Spine CEO Steve Murray highlighted the system’s innovative design, rooted in the prodisc technology platform that has been refined over three decades. The combination of optionality for surgeons and proven clinical performance positions the prodisc C Vivo and prodisc C SK system as a leading solution in the field of cervical disc replacement.
This achievement not only reflects Centinel Spine’s commitment to advancing spinal health technologies but also signals a growing recognition among healthcare providers of the benefits of customizable, evidence-based solutions for treating spinal disorders. As Centinel Spine continues to innovate and expand its offerings, the healthcare industry watches closely for the next developments in improving patient outcomes in spine surgery.
