iGA®

​Integrated Global Alignment® (iGA) is a platform comprised of procedurally based technologies designed to enhance clinical and economic outcomes by increasing the predictability of achieving global alignment in all spinal procedures.

​
Why Alignment Matters
NuVasive® is committed to a global approach for assessing, preserving, and restoring spinal alignment in an effort to promote surgical efficiencies, lasting patient outcomes, and improved quality of life. Integration across the surgical workflow allows the surgeon to confidently and reproducibly calculate, correct, and confirm optimal spinal alignment.

iGA platform
iGA for Thoracolumbar

​Current and emerging data illustrates a direct correlation between spinal alignment and long-term clinical outcomes.¹ NuVasive is committed to a global approach for assessing, preserving, and restoring spinal alignment in an effort to promote surgical efficiencies and improve patient quality of life.
iGA platform
iGA for Cervical

Spinal regions are not independent of one another. Cervical lordosis depends heavily on thoracolumbar alignment and vice versa. Clinical data has demonstrated a strong correlation between cervical alignment and successful patient outcomes.²
