Spinal intraoperative positioning pins are thin, reusable rods designed to temporarily stabilize vertebrae during spinal surgery. They help surgeons align implants or surgical instruments like fixation plates or retractors by anchoring into the bone, ensuring precise placement before permanent fixation.
These devices are typically reusable, requiring sterilization between uses, and are regulated as surgical instruments. They are not implants themselves but assist in the positioning of other spinal devices, so their classification and supply vary by jurisdiction and intended use.
