Case Study Spotlight
Navigation System for Spinal Surgery
with Bolt
From 2020 to 2021, LHF provided complete human factors support to a start up device company called Bolt® Navigation (Bolt). From HF strategy and risk documentation to IFU design and usability testing, our team provided it all for Bolt’s one-of-a-kind spinal navigation system for the placement of pedicle screws. With our help, Bolt was able to develop a safe and usable system that improves accuracy and efficiency for surgeons and the surgical staff. The Bolt Navigation System received FDA market approval in December 2023.
