TraumaGPS by Xenco Medical enables verified users to request an emergency delivery of Xenco Medical’s various spinal implant systems, including the company’s disposable Anterior Cervical, Posterior Cervical, Pedicle Screw and Lumbar Interbody spinal systems. Once the trauma delivery order has been accepted by a verified sales representative, the TraumaGPS mobile application offers the driver GPS navigation to the requestor’s hospital while allowing the requestor to watch the driver’s position as he or she delivers the Xenco Medical implant systems.

“Allowing hospitals to precisely predict the arrival of emergency deliveries of Xenco Medical’s surgery-ready implant systems, TraumaGPS amplifies the impact our single-use devices have in accelerating the surgical process and optimizing care,” said Xenco Medical Founder and CEO, Jason Haider.

Designed to be both lightweight and easily transportable, Xenco Medical’s disposable implant systems delivered through its TraumaGPS application offer a streamlined approach to spinal procedures as breakthrough single-use, composite polymer implant systems. With the single-use, composite polymer instrument and implants locked together in the sterile package, the Xenco Medical systems are capable of being used immediately upon arrival at the hospital. Designed to both increase efficiency in the OR as well as eliminate the internal logistics associated with the autoclave process, the surgery-ready systems by Xenco Medical allow hospitals and surgeons to engage trauma cases immediately, without delay due to sterilization.

Existing at the intersection of materials science and biomechanical engineering, Xenco Medical’s single-use spinal systems are the first polymer-based devices of their kind. Unlike the traditional metal instruments that are reused in hundreds of patients until a mechanical failure, Xenco Medical’s single-use systems are perfectly calibrated and sterile-packaged for patient-specific use. Made from a highly reinforced composite polymer, Xenco Medical’s patient-specific spinal systems have previously made news for outperforming aluminum metal in maintaining structural integrity.
