NextStep Arthropedix introduced The Preserve, reported to be the first retractorless, assistantless anterior hip approach designed to eliminate soft tissue and bone injury caused by retractors.
The Preserve decreases the number of assistants required for a procedure, may improve operational efficiency and ultimately maximize surgical reproducibility.
The system:
Requires one less person in the operating room
Eliminates soft tissue disruption from retractors
Is compatible with Athello table and competitors’ direct anterior tables
Benefits of The Preserve include a decreased surgical footprint, less soft tissue and bony trauma, assistantless surgery, cost savings and an ASC-friendly nature. Assistantless surgery offers the potential for decreased risk of infection, is a solution to widespread staffing issues, and allows for safe transition to an ASC setting.
The Preserve is performed using the NextStep “Helpi,” a custom instrument created especially for the femur-first Preserve Technique. Helpi has a rounded end that custom fits into the NextStep female broach, eliminating bone injuries. It has a blunt tip that reduces soft tissue injuries and is easily maneuverable, enabling maximum exposure.
Randy Theken, Founder of NextStep Arthropedix, expressed his excitement over the procedure. “We are very excited to launch The Preserve. I’m proud of our team for coming together to develop a procedure that makes the lives of our surgeons easier and offers their patients a potentially quicker and less painful recovery.”
Within 2023, NextStep will launch two new products, a new collared hip stem system and kinematic knee system.
