NavJam entered into an exclusive worldwide sales and distribution agreement granting Ruthless Spine the rights to market NavJam’s patented and patent-pending spinal surgery instruments. The agreement covers NavJam’s “smart” Jamshidi and its upcoming KS Drill Guide for power drills, which are designed to work in tandem with Ruthless Spine’s RJB technology.
Karlton Spindle, inventor of the patented and FDA 510(k)-cleared NavJam “smart” Jamshidi, co-invented the FDA De Novo–approved RJB intraoperative measurement device at Ruthless Spine. He said the new partnership will enable continued innovation. “This relationship allows me to keep developing new instrumentation and expanding Ruthless Spine’s portfolio,” said Spindle. “We’re looking ahead from the Jamshidi to the upcoming NavJam Power Drill Adapter, along with products in development like the KSQ.”
The NavJam Jamshidi works with Ruthless Spine’s FDA De Novo–cleared RJB intraoperative angle measurement instrument. The RJB is a single-use, Bluetooth-connected module that pairs with a tablet to display instrument orientation in real time, eliminating bulky, costly equipment and setup time while dramatically reducing patient exposure to radiation. In clinical use, it has reduced average surgical time by 77 minutes per case while matching the accuracy of traditional navigation systems.
The NavJam extends this innovation to the Jamshidi needle step of lumbosacral pedicle screw placement. Disposable and wirelessly linked to a tablet, it gives surgeons live visual feedback on screw placement—serving as a precise guide rather than a replacement for surgical judgment. Together, the NavJam and RJB reduce radiation exposure, cut costs, and shorten operating time.
