Lazurite receives FDA clearance for wireless camera for minimally invasive surgery
Lazurite has announced FDA clearance of the ArthroFree wireless camera system for use in minimally invasive surgery, according to a company press release.
The ArthroFree system utilizes patient data consoles, surgical displays and endoscopes to improve OR efficiency and productivity, according to the release.
“The idea for what is now the FDA-cleared ArthroFree system was born from the real need to create a safer, more efficient operating room for the benefit of everyone involved - from patients to surgeons to OR teams to clinics and hospitals,” Eugene Malinskiy, CEO and co-founder of Lazurite, said in the release.
“We are proud to have achieved this major milestone on our way to bringing operating rooms across the country into the wireless age,” Mark Froimson, MD, chair of the board of Lazurite, said in the release. “In the coming year, we will be introducing the ArthroFree system to thousands of health care professionals at conferences, in demos, through distributors and group purchasing channels, and through partnerships with leading medical centers,” he added.
