SI-Restore: Simplifying the Diagnosis and Treatment of the Dysfunctional SI Joint

Top 10 Minimally Invasive Device Solution Companies - 2020

The continuous technological advancements in the field of minimally invasive devices have resulted in higher-quality instruments that allow surgeons to perform surgical interventions efficiently without sacrificing patient safety. Robotics, cameras, and sensors are being used to improve minimally invasive surgical outcomes worldwide radically. The improved product designs provide a level of control and accuracy in the operating room. Minimally invasive surgeries (MIS) are considered much less traumatic than conventional open surgeries, with the patients recovering faster.

The market for minimally invasive surgical instruments is continually evolving on the back of innovative advancements, especially across several domains like cardiac, orthopedic, ophthalmic, neurological, and oral surgical procedures. As the minimally invasive device market continues to expand, the drive to minimize the device footprint by making it “smarter” or multi-functional is putting pressure on engineering teams to come up with more upgraded devices. Overcoming this challenge requires knowledge of device development, electro-mechanics, biology, and many other fields. The quest is toward developing minimally invasive solutions that promise enhanced quality of life and health.

On that note, MedTech Outlook has compiled a list of the top 10 Minimally Invasive Device Solution Providers to help organizations navigate the minimally invasive device arena. Besides, the edition also comprises insights from thought leaders in the sector on industry trends, best practices, and the latest innovations.

We present to you MedTech Outlook’s “Top 10 Minimally Invasive Device Solution Providers - 2020”

    Top Minimally Invasive Device Solution Companies

    EndoGlow
    EndoGlow makes fluorescent surgical instruments used to enhance visualization during minimally invasive surgeries. The company’s solutions are backed by their one-of-its-kind Tissue Reveal Technology (TRT) that provides more visual information to surgeons to help them enhance their decision making during laparoscopic and robotic surgeries. With the ability to highlight surgical planes and expose anomalies under the tissue surface, TRT enables surgical teams to see through tissues and gain more visual information, helping them eliminate surgical complications. The solution is designed to transilluminate tissues, providing surgeons with information such as tissue depth, tissue quality, anatomical borders, and sub-surface pathology
    PQ Bypass
    PQ Bypass is a California-based medical device company that is developing a Detour System, which enables physicians to perform a fully percutaneous fem-pop bypass. The system is designed to mimic the durability of open fem-pop bypass surgery through a minimally invasive approach. The DETOUR System of PQ Bypass consists of two technologies: TORUS Stent Graft and the DETOURCrossing Device. These devices were specifically designed to perform a femoropopliteal bypass via two small punctures in the skin instead of open surgery. The Detour system is currently being studied in the US IDE DETOUR 2 Clinical Trial
    SI-Restore
    SI Restore focuses on technology addressing the life-limiting pain associated with sacroiliac spinal disorders and provides surgeons with a better way to restore their patients’ quality of life. SI-Restore even provides instruments in the system to enable surgeons to conveniently pre-pack the screw with biologics or load through the proximal end post-insertion. In the case of Nano Bioblast surface treatment, it consists of a unique macro and micro surface texture that uniformly increases the surface area that comes in contact with bone during implantation for improved osseointegration. The treatment process delivers a complex range of micro asperities within macro pits to create an enhanced surface morphology
    Avery Biomedical Devices
    Avery Biomedical Devices prides itself in continually producing and distributing industry leading, respiratory pacemakers. The Avery Breathing Pacemaker System is a phrenic nerve stimulator, also called a diaphragm pacemaker. It consists of surgically implanted receivers and electrodes mated to an external transmitter by antennas worn over the implanted receivers. Phrenic pacing provides ventilatory support for patients with chronic respiratory insufficiency whose diaphragm, lungs, and phrenic nerves have residual function
    IntraVu
    IntraVu gives physicians a big opportunity with an exceptionally small-size, high resolution, single-use advanced imaging system. This minimally-invasive technology allows for quick, easy, and direct visualization of interior spaces. It is ideal for a multitude of current procedures as well as optically guided injections, with numerous additional application possibilities in regenerative medicine
    Jarvik Heart
    Jarvik Heart, Inc. is a private company that develops miniaturized heart assist devices for the treatment of severe heart failure. The company, formed in 1988, is located in Manhattan, where it conducts development and manufacturing activities. The Jarvik 2000® Ventricular Assist Device, Jarvik Heart’s successful heart pump has earned CE Mark certification in Europe for both bridge-to-transplant and lifetime use. In Japan, the Jarvik 2000 has been approved by the PMDA for bridge-to-transplant. In the United States, the Jarvik 2000 is an investigational device used to support patients for lifetime use. There have been over 1000 Jarvik 2000 implants worldwide. The Jarvik 2000 has successfully sustained and improved the condition of patients awaiting transplants as well as those who have chosen the device for lifetime use
    LiNA Medical
    LiNA Medical develops innovative, safe and simple to use devices for minimally invasive gynecology. The company was founded by Niels Kornerup in 1977, originally designing and manufacturing ECG Electrodes. LiNA Medical‘s ability to focus on niche surgical specialties became a driving force in the company. In the 1980s and 90s LiNA Medical joined the fields of electro-surgery and laparoscopic surgery, including the launch of LiNA PowerBlade™ . The launch of the LiNA Loop™ was the catalyst for the company’s strong focus on minimally invasive gynecology. LiNA Medical is dedicated to continued development of innovative products that improve the quality of women’s lives around the globe
    Ripple Neuromed
