This is the company’s 71st system used to treat pediatric patients with orthopedic conditions, according to a March 4 press release. 

It is the company’s first solution to treat early onset scoliosis patients, specifically those associated with or at risk of thoracic insufficiency syndrome, a condition that interferes with lung function and development.

The Response system includes implants and instruments for rib and pelvic fixation. It also includes a range of implant options, low profile implants, range of motion rib hooks and locking options to keep implants in place.

The new rib and pelvic system is compatible with 5.5/6.0 and 4.5/5.0 Response systems, allowing surgeons to treat the entire spectrum of patients with scoliosis, according to the release. 

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.
