The system is a simplified surgical technique for refixation of the rotator cuff tendon to the bone, according to a July 6 news release. 

In the procedure, the base plate is positioned and the fixation points are then driven into the bone. The system can be used with both arthroscopic and open reconstruction techniques. 

The goal of the system is to reduce the amount of time and money spent on rotator cuff repair procedures. 

Sinefix will initially be used at clinical sites in a limited market release, the release said.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 18–20 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
