Lyon (France), October 25, 2022 – 6 pm CEST – SMAIO (Software, Machines and Adaptative Implants in Orthopaedics – Euronext Growth Paris ISIN: FR0014005I80 / Ticker: ALSMA), a French player specialized in complex spine surgery with a global offer comprising software, adaptative implants and related services, today announced the success of its two European educational programs held in September 2022.
An integral part of its i-kontrol offer via its i-learn module, the purpose of the“Sagittal Alignment Academy” training programs provided by SMAIO is to disseminate the concepts and techniques developed by the Company through an approach based on the study of practical cases. During the month of September 2022, SMAIO organized two Sagittal Alignment Academy programs for its European clients. The conferences were held in Copenhagen for Northern Europe and in Madrid for Southern Europe.
All in all, some thirty participating surgeons spent one day studying actual cases that required an appropriate spine realignment strategy, including a half-day attending “cad labs” where they used SMAIO’s implants and instruments in conditions close to those encountered during real surgery.
Following these sessions, the surgeons were given an opportunity to try out the i-kontrol platform with the assistance of SMAIO’s experts. They can thus plan one or several surgical procedures with the KEOPS balance analyzer 3D software, use a patient-specific union rod related to the planning and perform the planned spine realignment with Kheiron implants. The secure transfer of data and the long-term analysis of the results obtained can be carried out via the KEOPS data management platform. The goal, following this first i-kontrol experience, is to offer long-term collaboration based on the execution of planned surgical procedures and the use of anonymized patient data to improve the quality of care provided to patients.
Another Sagittal Alignment Academy training program is planned for the United States, the world’s largest spine market, in Dallas in November.
