About SpineGuard®
Co-founded in 2009 in France and the USA
by Pierre Jérôme and Stéphane Bette, SpineGuard’s mission is to make
spine surgery safer by bringing real-time digital technology into the
operating room. Its primary objective is to establish its proprietary
DSG™ (Dynamic Surgical Guidance) technology as the global standard of
surgical care, starting with safer screw placement in spine surgery and
then in other surgeries. PediGuard®, the first device designed using
DSG, was co-invented by Maurice Bourlion, Ph.D., Ciaran Bolger, M.D.,
Ph.D., and Alain Vanquaethem, Biomedical Engineer. It is the world’s
first and only handheld device capable of alerting surgeons to potential
pedicular or vertebral breaches. Over 50,000 surgical procedures have
been performed worldwide with DSG enabled devices. Numerous studies
published in peer-reviewed medical and scientific journals have
demonstrated the multiple benefits that PediGuard delivers to patients,
surgical staff and hospitals. SpineGuard is expanding the scope of its
DSG platform through strategic partnerships with innovative medical
device companies and the development of smart instruments and implants.
