🌟 Breaking Ground in Surgical Innovation with the VORTEX System! 🌟 We are thrilled to announce the national launch of the VORTEX Surgical Suction Clearing system, developed by Stephen P. Kalhorn, MD, FAANS at the Medical University of South Carolina in collaboration with VayuClear and Medical Access Partners, LLC. This innovative device revolutionizes surgical procedures by efficiently clearing suction lines, enhancing safety and procedure flow. Dr. Kalhorn first used the VORTEX system in a lumbar procedure this past June, instantly benefiting from its efficiency. Over the past few months, it has proven invaluable in multiple surgeries, reducing clogging frustrations and saving significant time. Our dedicated team at the Zucker Institute was instrumental in bringing VORTEX to market by offering comprehensive support. We are excited to see Dr. Kalhorn's vision come to life and are committed to fostering innovation and developing cutting-edge technologies like VORTEX.

We were thrilled to showcase the pivotal role of our envivoPC® technology in evaluating medical devices. During this session, we captured compelling evidence demonstrating how our cadaveric perfusion system accurately simulates aortic valve activation—a critical factor in testing device performance and reliability against real physiological conditions. A special thank you to NAMSA in Minneapolis for their invaluable collaboration. Together, we captured video footage of valve movements with our system, X-ray imagery of the aorta, and cardiac ultrasound images highlighting valve dynamics. These advanced simulations replicate first-in-human trial conditions, offering critical data for evaluating the performance and reliability of medical devices as they approach first-in-human trials. By providing lifelike, cadaveric models, we can accelerate R&D processes, enhance device optimization, and streamline the transition to clinical trials, ultimately driving faster advancements in medical technology. These innovations are crucial for advancing medical technology and improving patient outcomes. We look forward to more groundbreaking developments and successful partnerships ahead!

🏆RevMedica, Inc. Secures #SBIR NIH Phase I Grant for Tissue-Sensing Surgical Stapler 🏥Stapler malfunctions and misuses during surgeries can lead to severe complications such as bleeding, sepsis, and even death, primarily due to misfiring and cutting errors. To address these critical issues, RevMedica, Inc. is launching a semi-reusable surgical stapler with real-time feedback to improve outcomes and reduce these risks. It features a reusable control system to cut down on toxic waste, which accounts for 25% of healthcare costs, and a disposable handle to save 40% on surgery preparation costs and time. With the support of the #SBIR Phase I grant, this innovation aims to cut hospital costs, improve surgical safety, and advance smart medical device research. 👉To know more about this revolutionary medical innovation, read here: https://lnkd.in/dqKHweck #AlienTT #RevMedica #MedicalStapler #innovation #SBIR

Cardiac Surgeons and Electrophysiologists are offering hope to patients with Advanced Afib with a dual approach. By combining epicardial and endocardial ablation, patients are experiencing 90% fewer Afib episodes. See how this two-step approach has been more effective than an endocardial RF ablation alone at: https://okt.to/8Zp4ov #HybridAFTherapy #Epeeps #Cardiac

Transforming Pediatric Spinal Fusion: How a Powerful nView/NDI Partnership is Making It Happen. Pediatric spinal fusion procedures have long been a complex challenge in the medical field due to unique patient anatomy and the presence of concurrent complications. Driven by the desire to enhance these procedures, nView medical took a strategic step - they reached out to NDI, the industry leader in optical navigation technology. Through their collaboration, nView developed the nView s1™ imaging system. Integrated with NDI’s Polaris Lyra® optical navigation technology, the nView s1 system offers advanced 3D navigation capabilities, real-time 3D imaging, and sub-millimeter accuracy. This partnership is about more than innovating a product - it's about making a difference for children with scoliosis and spinal deformities. Together, nView and NDI enhance patient outcomes and set a new precedent in pediatric spinal fusion care through innovative technology solutions.

In this podcast Teri Yates answers many of the questions that #surgeons ask us frequently during curbside consults. #obl, #asc, or #hybrid which is right for your practice? Accountable Physician Advisors can help you answer that question with confidence and devise a plan to make it happen.

The cardio-vascular imaging is the corner-stone for the stent graft follow-up.

Even if the title of a research study states that joint arthroplasty patients have been studied and an abstract refers to joint arthroplasty, if the hospital studied has three surgeons who performed 80% of those cases, what has been studied are three surgeons' patients. We showed that variability among surgeons in their contributions to incremental costs associated with perioperative complications only slightly exceeds the variability of those incremental costs among surgical categories. Consequence: perioperative surgical home and enhanced recovery research results involving single institutions and a small number of surgeons are generalizable to other hospitals and healthcare systems. https://lnkd.in/gdksx3im

Surge Cardiovascular perfusion sets allow surgeons to build customizable cardioplegia delivery circuits based on preference and procedure. Combinations include sets that are vented or non-vented, color-coded or non-color-coded clamps, antegrade or retrograde options, with flexible tubing and multiple lengths.
