    PathFinder NXT Pivoting Percutaneous Rod Holder || This device is an instrument used during orthopedic surgery. The intended use of the pivoting percutaneous rod holder is to attach to the rod to facilitate rod insertion, positioning, and orientation through the extender sleeves, under the fascia. The rod is secured to the holder by tightening a captive set screw against the rod end in the tip of the holder using the set screw driver. After positioning the rod and securing at least one pedicle screw closure top against the implanted rod, the holder is removed from the rod end by loosening the captive set screw with the set screw driver.
