The L. S. Peery, M.D. Orthopaedic Innovation Center at the Department of Orthopaedics, Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine, University of Utah, announced FDA 510(k) clearance of the CoAptix S 7.5mm System, a dynamic compression, cannulated, headed and headless bone screw in lengths ranging from 45mm to 180mm. The bone screws are engineered to provide continuous dynamic compression to a bony repair construct in the presence of up to 4mm of resorption at the bone healing interface.
The CoAptix S 7.5mm is part of the CoAptix platform technology, a Dynamic Compression Implant System that includes bone screws, intramedullary fixation devices, and hybrid devices to address fracture fixation, joint fusion, and osteotomy stabilization by potentially reducing the incidence rate of non-unions. Development of the smaller CoAptix S 3.5mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm, and 6.5mm System, also a cannulated, headed and headless bone screw system, is currently underway.
The Dynamic Compression Implant System is backed by a robust intellectual property portfolio:
Six issued U.S. patents with additional U.S. and international applications pending
A strong patent estate expected to form a dominant position in the dynamic compression implant space
The Orthopaedic Innovation Center is actively engaging with medical device companies and strategic partners interested in licensing or acquiring rights to the Dynamic Compression Implant System.
