Bleeding remains the leading cause of preventable death following major trauma and presents a significant challenge in surgical and post-operative care. Despite the urgency of effective interventions, the level of evidence and accepted standards in this field are limited and patient outcomes can vary significantly. Octapharma has made significant contributions to improving standards of critical care and developing new treatments for coagulation management.

Early LION adopter, Dr. Maria Berrocal, discusses the exclusive benefits of the LION laser indirect ophthalmoscope in her interview with RetinaLink. When Dr. Berrocal experienced a power outage, she "continued to treat my patients who required laser, PRP or retinal tears, because I have the NORLASE LION laser...no downtime and my patients received the treatment they needed." LION helps Dr. Berrocal reach patients who "are unable to travel due to limited or no transportation." Treat anytime, anywhere with minimal setup required. Learn more about how LION empowers doctors with true portability and flexibility–and transforms practice efficiency. https://bit.ly/4aIk9Dp

In this episode, Dr. Diana Velazquez-Pimentel interviews plastic surgeon and Plexaa founder Dr. Saahil Mehta. They discuss the novel concept of preconditioning the skin before reconstructive breast surgery and Plexaa’s product solution for reducing wound healing complications. Dr. Mehta first started exploring the topic of preconditioning the body for healing when he learned about skin-sparing mastectomy. He realized that while this procedure provided great benefit for reconstruction outcomes, it left behind thin, poorly perfused skin that was vulnerable to necrosis. He started a clinical research project over heat stress and the subsequent chaperone protein and endogenous carbon monoxide release that allows for vasodilation and improved perfusion. He found that preconditioning and applying supraphysiological heat stress to the skin prior to surgical procedures resulted in reductions in rates of skin necrosis and re-operation. Today, Plexaa is a bra insert that can be heated to an exact temperature using a phone app. The technology is made possible by a principal circuit board that ensures a safe and accurate heat delivery to breast cancer patients who may have altered sensation to skin sensation from prior radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Plexaa has partnered with institutions and is planning to help doctors and nurses incorporate the product into their pre-operative planning.
