” Clinical case reports have indicated that the CurvaFix Implant achieves strong, stable fixation that follows and fills the natural curvature of each patient’s anatomy, which may immediately reduce pain, allow for earlier mobility, and improve patient recovery. ...
The CurvaFix IM Implant has the potential to overcome the limitations of existing implants used for pelvic fracture fixation in both high-impact trauma and fragility fracture patients. Case reports have indicated that the curved implant achieves strong, stable fixation that follows and fills the natural curvature ...
“The porous nature more naturally represents bone structure, which I believe helps with initial implant stability. Cementless fixation is growing quickly, and this is a phenomenal opportunity for advancing patient ...
Applying these technologies to an entire spine portfolio offers us the potential to offer patients better fixation after fusion surgeries.” – Douglas Pahl, MD, Todd Bonvallet, MD, The Hughston Clinic, Columbus, GA “The FortiCore scaffold has performed well for my patients in lumbar and cervical fusions, providing a large area of highly porous, nanotube ...

When the implant is infused with a monomer, it conforms to the shape of the patient’s intramedullary bone canal. ...
” Using the IlluminOss System, a patient-conforming implant is created to provide strength and stability over the entire length of the implant supporting the weakened bone. ...
The ceramic nanosurfacing technology dovetails with Nanovis’ technology, offering a range of spinal implant nanosurfaces designed to increase bone to implant growth. The addition of ceramic nanosurfacing allows Nanovis to extend its lead in the development of superior fixation technology for medical implants with greater ...

The surgeon then activates a light source which delivers visible light to the PET balloon, polymerizing the monomer. The cured, hardened implant provides longitudinal strength and rotational stability over the length of the implant, stabilizing the fracture. ...
Signature Orthopaedics, an Australian-based designer and developer of innovative medical devices and instrumentation, has teamed up with Canadian-based Halifax Biomedical Inc to offer HALIFAX monitoring to patients who receive Signature joint replacement implants. HALIFAX monitoring includes the implantation of small markers into the patient’s bone during ...
Implanted in the same manner as traditional bone screws and positioned to reduce and fixate a lower extremity fracture, the OrthoFuzIon bone screw galvanically produces silver ions, which actively reduce microbial contamination. ...
“Research studies have shown the value and importance of accurate 3D measurements to predict loose or unstable implants for patients. This decision from CMS will support our US customer’s implementation of our monitoring technology as their standard of clinical ...
This specification covers the raw material and final product requirements, and the associated test methods for the selection of porous high density and ultra high molecular weight polyethylenes intended for use in surgical implants. The porous polyethylene may be used as a free standing product or as a coating on a substrate in ...
