Parvizi Surgical Innovation Invests in Implanted Sensor Technologies to Track Infection and Fracture Healing
Summary
Notably, Aravis sensors are visible on radiographic images, routinely obtained as part of standard patient care, and provide information about motion and local chemical concentrations. Currently, joint fluid aspirations are the common method for infection detection, but having a sensor read through standard X-ray imaging would offer a faster, less painful, cost-effective, and lower-risk alternative. Behrend emphasizes the challenge of treating infections that develop on the surfaces of implanted medical devices, which often form antibiotic-resistant biofilms and evade the immune system. The companys mission is to continue along these lines by developing groundbreaking technologies that address various medical conditions and challenges that have persisted and strained our healthcare system. Through an extensive and diversified network of professionals, PSI gains access to leading medical technologies that address a wide range of treatments.Parvizi Surgical Innovation, LLC is actively supporting its affiliate companies in research studies, product development, manufacturing, product testing, regulatory activities, clinical trials, and intellectual property protection (patents, trademarks, and copyrights) for pre-clinical and clinical use.
