RN First Assist /Spinal Fusion

Updated:   Published

Hello! I need to connect with RN first assistants with experience in spinal fusion cases, specifically, using Stealth with c-arm and o-arm. If anyone has this expertise, please let me know. I'd love to talk with you. I have some questions.

Thanks very much!

Well there are many uses for the use of O- arm in spine surgery. Selective use of the device, only where it is felt it will truly impact outcome. I am not that expert but you can have a consult of some experts at spinal fusion NJ.
