Waypoint Orthopedics, Inc., a spinal medical device company, announces that the company’s Waypoint GPS™ – a smart bone awl for use during pedicle screw pilot hole drilling – has received 510k clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The Waypoint GPS has been designed to integrate easily into any workflow, all while providing the surgical team with information clearly and intuitively. As a Runway Healthcare portfolio company, we will look to transfer Waypoint Orthopedics to an existing commercial entity for wide-scale commercialization.” 

Dr. Stephen Banco, an orthopedic spine surgeon and co-founder of Waypoint Orthopedics, said: “The Waypoint GPS provides surgeons real-time feedback and confidence as they cannulate pedicles with incredibly simple and easy-to-use technology. I look forward to utilizing the Waypoint GPS in all of my instrumented fusions moving forward as an additional layer of safety and reliability.”
