Globus' ultimate goal is pain free, active lives for all patients. The company' s innovative products provide patients with improved safety and improved outcomes, including specific benefits such as preserved motion and flexibility, shorter operative times, reduced hospital stays and recovery periods, decreased post-operative pain, and smaller scars.
Unlike other device companies, Globus is and always has been singularly focused on spine surgery. The company was founded in 2003 by an accomplished and passionate team of spine professionals with a shared vision to create products that promote healing in patients with spinal disorders through fusion and non-fusion techniques.
Today, Globus offers a full suite of innovative spine products that represent significant and proven technological advancements in Fusion, MIS, Motion Preservation and Biomaterials. Globus' products are developed through extensive collaboration with leading spine surgeons. Each product is tested, evaluated and enhanced by teams of surgeons, working side by side with Globus engineers in the lab, in the prototype facility, and in the operating room to develop products that result in pain-free, active lives for patients.
FUSION
Globus' fusion products are the gold standard in the treatment of degenerative spine disease. Fusion stops the pain associated with disc disease and degeneration by removing the damaged discs, restoring disc height to relieve pressure on impinged nerve roots, and fusing together adjacent verebra to maintain the newly restored disc height.
MOTION PRESERVATION
While fusion remains the most common surgical treatment for the spine, superior non-fusion techniques and devices are the future of spine surgery. Fusion is effective in treating many spinal disorders, it is not appropriate in some situations. In many of these cases, innovative non-fusion techniques are the future of spine treatments - and Globus is leading the charge. Fusion can reduce a patient's mobility and flexibility after surgery. Globus line of non-fusion products are uniquely designed to preserve the patient's full range of motion and have established Globus as the world leader in motion preservation technology.
MINIMALLY INVASIVE SURGERY
Revolutionary MIS techniques are transforming spine surgery and dramatically improving patients' lives through less invasive surgeries that are safer and result in smaller scars, faster recovery, and less pain. Globus offers a full range of technologically-advanced products that allow the delivery of fusion and motion preservation through minimally invasive techniques.
BIOMATERIALS
Globus is quickly becoming a pioneer in biomaterials, a burgeoning new segment of spine treatment. Globus has developed cutting-edge biomaterials for spinal fusion, trauma, and reconstructive bone grafting procedures.
As a patient possibly considering spine surgery there will be many questions that may arise. Globus believes that it is important for patients to have an open dialogue with their surgeon.
