IlluminOSS receives new patents for bone stabilization system
IlluminOSS Medical announced that it has received a notice of allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for instruments used in the company’s Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System.
The minimally invasive Photodynamic Bone Stabilization System stabilizes bone fractures or prevents impending fractures through a percutaneous fracture fixation system that can be implanted for stand-alone primary fixation or in combination with screws or plates. The system is customized fitted for each patient’s specific anatomy providing rotational and torsional stability to the fracture.
“In addition to the robustness of our patent estate, IlluminOss is gathering compelling clinical evidence that shows how our patient-customized approach to fracture repair has the potential to improve clinical outcomes,” Dirk Kuyper, president and chief executive officer of IlluminOss, stated in a company press release.
