Mighty Oak Medical

Mighty Oak Medical wants to thank Robin Young, Orthopedics This Week and RRY Publications for focusing on a recent peer-reviewed article from Virginia Mason demonstrating the unsurpassed accuracy of its FIREFLY 3D printed pedicle screw guides for placing screws in the most challenging of pedicles. Mighty Oak won the coveted Spine Technology Award from Orthopedics This Week four separate times and, on each occasion, went to NASS thrilled to have its products chosen from the vast array of exciting new spinal technologies out there. This year, we head to NASS equally thrilled that Orthopedics This Week has featured FIREFLY in its newsletter as a navigation solution that provides unsurpassed accuracy while decreasing the time needed for screw placement in complex spinal surgeries. The concept that won years ago has been proven to work incredibly well. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has helped FIREFLY on its exciting journey! We look forward to seeing you at NASS. https://lnkd.in/gkJ-mSa4

🌟 Celebrating Innovation in Medical Technology! 🌟 Congratulations to our partner Mighty Oak Medical, HP’s Center of Excellence in the US for medical devices, for their recent FDA clearance of the 3D pre-surgical planning software! 🏆 Key New Features: - Automated spinal CT scan segmentation 🧠 - Full skeletal anatomy CT scan segmentation 🦴 - Full skeletal autoclavable 3D printed anatomical bone models   This advanced software and the anatomical bone models aid in forming diagnoses and enable surgeons to efficiently visualize challenging anatomy pre-operatively. The anatomical bone models, printed on HP Multi Jet Fusion technology using HP’s biocompatible and autoclave-sterilizable material, allow surgeons to anticipate complex patient anatomy that may otherwise be hidden beneath the patient's soft tissue structures. This enables them to make well-informed surgical plans.   Together with Mighty Oak Medical we are improving patient care and making the impossible possible. We are excited about future enhancements to our shared healthcare software ecosystem, including 3D pre-operative spinal deformity correction planning, and we look forward to many more FDA clearances. 🚀   Congrats again, Mighty Oak Medical! 🎉   #MedicalInnovation #3DPrinting #Healthcare #FDAApproval #SurgicalPlanning #PatientCare #HP #MightyOakMedical #MedicalDevices #Innovation

Thank you HP 3D Printing and Fast Company! We are thankful for this recognition, for our partnership with HP 3D Printing, and for the opportunity to help surgeons make complex spine surgery safer and more efficient for their patients using 3D pre-surgical planning and patient-specific 3D-printed FIREFLY guides and bone models. #FCDesignAwards #InnovationByDesign #HealthcareInnovation #FastCompanyAwards #spinesurgery #neurosurgery #scoliosis

We are privileged to impact patient lives every day and extremely grateful to partner with HP 3D Printing, OrthoPediatrics, and our surgeon customers to provide patient-specific solutions to enhance care! #medicaldevice #spinesurgery #neurosurgery #surgicalnavigation Children's Hospital Colorado

Today we feature a second highlight of the recent presentation at the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS): reductions in blood loss. Gooda et al showed 𝟮𝟲% less blood loss per screw on average (𝗽<𝟬.𝟬𝟱) 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲.¹ Studies have shown a direct correlation between increased blood loss, higher rates of infection, and longer hospital stays.² Darren F.

Today we highlight a finding from a recent presentation at the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS): surgical duration. Gooda et al demonstrated that FIREFLY guides reduced total surgical time by an average of 23% (p<0.05).1 Research consistently shows longer operative times are linked to increased complications in spine surgery.2,3 Darren F.

Congratulations to Mr. Darren Lui and team for their recent presentation at the British Association of Spine Surgeons (BASS) meeting, comparing FIREFLY pre-surgical planning and navigation to freehand techniques for posterior spinal fusion in Scoliosis. Later this week we'll highlight two key findings of their 110-patient study including duration of surgery, blood loss per screw, patient outcomes, and complication rates.¹ Check back tomorrow to learn more! ¹Gooda et al.
