Realists (Leipzig, Germany), renowned for their RealSpine synthetic spine simulators have entered into a strategic partnership with Axis Spine Technologies. Realists advanced simulator will play a crucial role in Axis Spine’s commercialization in the US. The RealSpine simulators are widely recognised for their realistic replication of spinal anatomy and biomechanics. Integrating these simulators with Axis Spine technologies modular ALIF cages create a superb training tool.
The simulators allow surgeons to practise and refine techniques in a controlled, risk-free environment, much like the way airline pilots practice in simulators. Reducing the need for cadaver labs, the simulators allow training to be scheduled close to the surgeon and at the surgeon’s convenience speeding up product adoption.
Ivo Scheepens, VP Commercial Strategy at Axis Spine Technologies: I have worked with a prior version of these simulators and seen first hand the value they bring to surgeons. It is great to partner the best simulated training experience with the best spinal cage and enable surgeons see what the implant is capable of and how they can advance the treatment of their patients.
