Creo One simplifies the pedicle preparation of Globus Medical’s modular pedicle screw platform while maintaining navigational accuracy and increasing pullout strength.

The screw may save time and improve efficiency in the operating room by reducing procedural steps, the release said. It eliminates the need to tap and only needs a starting pilot hole to break the cortex to place the screw.
