Orthofix Physio-Stim with Smartphone App Cleared in USA, Europe

De -


Orthofix, a company out of Lewisville, Texas, won FDA clearance and CE Mark approval for the latest PhysioStim bone growth stimulators. PhysioStim devices deliver pulsed electromagnetic fields that are used to repair nonunion fractures within the arms and legs that have not exhibited healing on their own. The resulting electric field that is established at the site of the fractures is what directly stimulates the bone to grow.

What’s new in the latest version of the PhysioStim is connectivity to the STIM onTrack app for iOS devices. Using this app, patients receive reminders, are guided through their therapy regimen, while their physicians can check up on adherence to the prescription.

Intramuscular injections can occur when a patient applies too much force to many of the existing injection devices. The new BD Nano compensates for this by spreading the load across the injection site and preventing the needle from going to far under the surface of the skin. In a study, this design helped to achieve more reliable injections which led to an 8-fold decrease in “calculated intramuscular injection risk,” according to BD. “The launch of BD Nano 2nd gen pen needles reinforces BD’s commitment to providing the most advanced solutions possible for people with diabetes to help achieve better clinical management of insulin use,” said Stanislav Glezer, MD, MBA, global vice president of Medical Affairs for BD, a press release. “In addition to the added clinical benefits the latest BD innovation brings, the new ergono
