Arthrosurface receives FDA Clearance of Patellofemoral WaveKahuna Arthroplasty System

June 29, 2018 OrthoSpineNews

FRANKLIN, Mass., June 29, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Arthrosurface, Inc., a leading provider of minimally invasive, motion preserving joint restoration systems, announces their recent FDA 510(k) Clearance to market the Patellofemoral (PF) WaveKahuna Arthroplasty System. The PF WaveKahuna Arthroplasty System is a line extension to The Company’s previously cleared and commercially marketed family of HemiCAP® Patellofemoral & PF Wave Systems.

Shane Shankle, VP of US Sales expressed, “As a market leader in Patellofemoral Arthroplasty, we are very excited to round out our line with the PF WaveKahuna System. The larger implants will allow a surgeon to choose from a wide range of size offerings to better serve the patient’s needs and allow them to maintain their quality of life.”

The PF WaveKahuna restores the unique articular surface geometry of the Patella and Femoral Trochlea while maintaining the patient’s native anatomy. It’s innovative, extended lateral aspect and trochlear geometry is designed to address challenging Patellofemoral tracking and stability conditions as well as providing increased coverage of the trochlear groove. Furthermore, the novel patella design combines the clinical benefits of both the anatomic and dome patella implants from the PF Wave System. Additionally, the PF WaveKahuna femoral component is designed to mate with the currently marketed Arthrosurface PF Wave Fixation Component. The existing surgical technique is unchanged, with the addition of a superior ream step.

“The FDA clearance comes shortly after data recently presented at ESSKA confirmed significantly improved postoperative outcomes with high patient satisfaction and no progression of knee arthritis at 5 years follow-up. The timing could not be better,” said Dawn Wilson, VP of Quality & Regulatory.

The system will be available at the spinal surgery center, Zentrum für Wirbelsäulenchirurgie, a private practice led by Dr. Bernd Wiedenhöfer and Dr. Stefan Matschke, two specialists with 20 years of experience in spine therapy each. The practice specializes in non-surgical and surgical treatments of spinal disorders, providing diagnosis and therapy through cutting-edge medicine and state-of-the-art equipment, with an emphasis on patient safety.

“EOS imaging utilizes advanced scanning technology to allow ultra-low dose imaging of the entire body,” commented Dr. Wiedenhöfer. “Within a few seconds, the system provides a comprehensive overview of the patient in with up to 90% less radiation than a conventional X-ray and 100% reproduction of the ratios and angles. The resulting benefits for diagnosis and therapy of spinal pathologies are immense, and we are thrilled to now offer this vital technology.”

“Because the EOS® system provides a full-body 2D and 3D images, the patient can be assessed as a whole, which is not possible with a traditional X-ray,” added Dr. Matschke. “EOS® allows to accurately determine clinical parameters such as pelvic obliquity or sagittal disbalance, with valuable advantages for enabling physicians to provide the best treatment plans possible for our patients.”

Ambulatory Services Market Size Worth USD 4,099.6 Billion by 2025: Grand View Research, Inc.

June 27, 2018 OrthoSpineNews

SAN FRANCISCO, June 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ —

The global ambulatory services market is expected to reach USD 4,099.6 billion by 2025, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Increase in the availability of technologically advanced products, increase in the incidence of chronic diseases, growth in ageing population, and technological advancements in surgeries to reduce cost & treatment time are among key factors likely to drive the market during the forecast period.

     (Logo: https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/661327/Grand_View_Research_Logo.jpg )

Ambulatory services are likely to witness high growth in the coming years due to increase in the number of surgeries, the availability of private & public funding, as well as the availability of same-day surgeries at low cost to offer better medical services. According to Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project (HCUP), in 2014, 17.2 million surgeries were performed in ambulatory surgical settings and 22 million surgeries in hospital outpatient settings. In addition, various mergers & acquisitions are anticipated to propel the market. For instance, in December 2015, Premier Emergency Medical Specialists was acquired by AmSurg. This acquisition was expected to help AmSurg enter the emergency medicine specialty.

Technological advancements pertaining to diagnosis and minimally invasive surgeries are likely to reduce complications and help shorten hospital stays. Homecare via e-visits and telehealth solutions have become viable components of ambulatory care. For instance, in January 2017, Arterys, Inc. received FDA approval to commercialize Arterys Cardio DL, the first technology that uses a cloud-based deep learning algorithm for cardiac imaging.

Further Key Findings From the Report Suggest:

  • Increase in government expenditure for the development of ambulatory facilities to increase accessibility and reduce treatment cost is expected to propel the market
  • Primary care offices accounted for the largest share of the market in 2016 due to cost-effective treatment and easy accessibility for diagnosis & treatment
  • Surgical specialty is anticipated to be the fastest-growing segment in the forecast period due to increase in the demand for minimally invasive procedures. In addition, the preference of patients for nonsurgical and minimally invasive surgeries has led to the growth of plastic surgery centers. According to American Society of Plastic Surgeons, in 2016, 7.6 million cosmetic procedures were performed on people aged between 40 and 54 years. In 2016, United Nations spent more than 15 billion dollars on esthetic surgical and nonsurgical procedures
  • Based on the region, North America held the largest market share and is expected to retain its dominance during the forecast period due to increase in the number of advanced diagnostic methods and rise in the number of cases related to orthopedics, ophthalmology, gastroenterology, plastic surgery, and chronic pain
  • The Asia Pacific region is likely to witness significant growth over the next decade due to increase in the incidence of angle closure glaucoma & myopia, increase in life expectancy, and growth in recognition of the need to develop emergency care outside traditional hospital settings
  • Some of the key players are Surgery Partners; Envision Healthcare; IntegraMed America, Inc.; Symbion, Inc.; Terveystalo; NueHealth; Aspen Healthcare; and Medical Facilities Corporation

The growth of the cartilage repair market can be attributed to changing lifestyle, leading to a number of disorders such as obesity and degenerative joint diseases. The aforementioned factors have an influence on cartilage related injuries. These injuries eventually hamper productivity among the working population. Growing epidemiology of such diseases need effective treatment options, driving the demand for regenerative medicine, which are used in restoring damaged cartilage.

Based on the modality, the Cartilage Repair market is segmented into Cell-Based and Non-Cell-Based. Cell-Based Cartilage Repair further segmented into Chondrocyte Transplantation and Growth Factor Technology. Non-Cell-Based Cartilage Repair further includes Tissue Scaffolds and Cell-Free Composites. Based on the Application, the market is segmented into Hyaline Cartilage and Fibrocartilage. The treatment type segment covers Palliative and Intrinsic Repair Stimulus. Palliative further segmented into Viscosupplementation and Debridement & Lavage.
