By GlobalDataThe company stated that the device has been developed to offer patient safety, improved operating room productivity, and economic value through energy efficiency, cost-savings, and lower set-up and breakdown times.
Lazurite CEO and co-founder Eugene Malinskiy said: “The idea for what is now the FDA-cleared ArthroFree System was born from the very 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.”
“The entire endoscopic market will benefit from our minimally invasive surgical equipment advancement going forward.”
Designed to simplify sterilisation as well as minimise set-up and take-down times, the ArthroFree System eliminates hazards caused by fibre-optic cables.
