Spinal Simplicity and inFormed Consent are joining forces to incorporate inFormed Consent’s technology into Spinal Simplicity’s offerings.

inFormed Consent, as its name indicates, provides informed consent technology. Its technology offerings also include patient education technology. Combined, these tools can educate patients about potential procedures so the patients can make informed decisions.

inFormed Consent’s solution is provided via a tablet application that delivers a video explanation of the relevant medical procedure. The video can be paused at any time to allow the patient to ask questions. The application includes a patented process that ensures the patient has viewed the video. It is also enabled to allow for the patient and physician to provide digital signatures.

The solution can be archived for either the patient or physician to review at a later date. The procedure app is intended to provide, per the inFormed Consent website, a “consistent patient experience” and “standardized messaging for all providers.” The application can also be used to provide pre-appointment education.

Spinal Simplicity Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer Todd Moseley expressed excitement about the partnership. Moseley commented, “We are excited to collaborate with inFormed Consent to bring their state-of-the-art informed consent and patient education technology to our valued customers and their patients.”

Moseley added, “At Spinal Simplicity, we are committed to enhancing patient outcomes and experiences, and this partnership aligns perfectly with our mission. By equipping physicians and patients with innovative tools and resources, we can empower individuals to make informed decisions about their spine treatment journey.”

Spinal Simplicity is focused on delivering solutions for the treatment of complex spine and orthopedic conditions. Its product offerings include a spine fusion device and a sacroiliac (SI) joint fusion system.

Spinal Simplicity will integrate inFormed Consent’s procedure app into its product offerings. The Spinal Simplicity sales team will work with its existing customer base to both promote and distribute the app. By integrating the procedure app with Spinal Simplicity’s technology offerings for low back conditions the two companies aim to “revolutionize the way patients engage with their spine treatment and caregivers.”

inFormed Consent Founder Dan Kloster, M.D. remarked, “inFormed Consent is dedicated to revolutionizing the patient experience in their low back treatment journey through accessible and informative technology.”

This is a fascinating development. In my practice we've seen similar outcomes with the revised protocol. The key differentiator seems to be patient selection criteria. Has anyone else noticed the correlation with BMI thresholds?

Great point. I'd push back slightly on the conclusion, the sample size in the cited study is too small to draw population-level inferences. That said, the directional signal is compelling and worth a larger RCT.

We implemented a similar approach last year. Early results are promising but we're still gathering 12-month follow-up data. Happy to share our protocol if anyone is interested.
