Millions of people are treated each year for fractured bones and arthritic joints. Fixation of small bones in the upper and lower extremities is required in the treatment of fractures, osteotomies and arthrodeses of various joints, and compression of bone is critical for bones to heal successfully and to fuse together during these operations.
Extremity Medical is focused on developing “next-generation” devices to facilitate better healing rates in fractures and higher success rates in joint fusions. Extremity Medical is developing devices that allow surgeons to not only deliver improved compression, but to also maintain that compression for improved reconstruction. By combining proven technologies, advanced designs, superior materials and specialized instrumentation, Extremity Medical is developing products that will deliver better clinical results for patients and surgeons.
