📄 Remplir study published in JRMO #Orthocell has announced that results from the Remplir™ nerve regeneration clinical trial have been published in a high profile peer reviewed clinical journal. The study, showing nerve repair with Remplir following injury to the spinal cord, brachial plexus and other peripheral upper limb nerves consistently restores arm and hand function, was published in the Journal of Reconstructive Microsurgery Open (JRMO), a peer-reviewed clinical journal renowned for sharing advances in nerve reconstructive techniques and regeneration. Key findings from the study include: 🔹 Peripheral nerve repair clinical study showed consistent return of muscle function to paralysed upper limbs, following nerve repair with Remplir™. 🔹 Results showed 85% (23 of 27) of nerve repairs with Remplir, at 24 months post treatment, resulted in functional recovery of muscles controlled by the repaired nerve. Orthocell Chief Scientific Officer, Professor Minghao Zheng, said: “This study validated Remplir’s unique mechanism of action mimicking the native structure of epineurium, providing a protective barrier and neurotrophic microenvironment for nerve regeneration. Remplir’s unique biological characteristics underpinned the consistent return of function to paralysed upper limbs, the primary goal in this study. We are delighted to see this compelling research now published in JRMO and look forward to working with surgeons to consistently return muscle function following Remplir nerve regeneration treatment.” Read today’s ASX release 👉 https://lnkd.in/gdUgyxQP Read the publication here 👉 https://lnkd.in/g4f2Tt2i $OCC #ASX #biotech #regenerativemedicine #medicaldevice #nerverepair #healthcare #innovation

🔹In a groundbreaking medical breakthrough, surgeons have successfully implanted an artificial titanium heart in a human patient using magnetic levitation technology, similar to that of high-speed trains. This development, led by the company BiVACOR and the The Texas Heart Institute Institute, has not only proven to be a vital bridge while the patient was waiting for a transplant, but also promises to be a long-term solution to replace failing hearts. With a frictionless design that minimizes mechanical wear, this artificial heart represents a potential paradigm shift in the treatment of severe heart disease, which could significantly improve the quality of life of patients with no other therapeutic alternatives available.

Revolutionizing Medical Imaging: See Inside Living Organisms Without Surgery? 🌟 Recent research has unveiled a groundbreaking discovery: FD&C Yellow 5 (tartrazine), a common food dye, can temporarily make mouse skin transparent. This innovative technique allows scientists to visualize the internal structures of live mice without invasive procedures. Potential Impact on Healthcare: If adapted for human use, this method could transform medical diagnostics in several ways: 1. Non-Invasive Diagnostics: Imagine diagnosing conditions without surgery! This technique could lead to earlier and more accurate identification of diseases. 2. Real-Time Monitoring: Healthcare providers could observe disease progression and treatment responses in real-time, tailoring interventions more effectively. 3. Research Advancements: This could enhance research in drug development by allowing scientists to study live tissue reactions to new treatments. Looking Ahead While the possibilities are exciting, thorough research and safety evaluations will be crucial before applying this method in humans. The potential to revolutionize medical imaging is on the horizon, making healthcare more efficient and patient-friendly. What do you think about this innovative approach? Could it reshape the future of diagnostics? #MedicalInnovation #NonInvasiveDiagnostics #FutureOfHealthcare
