The L. S. Peery, M.D. Orthopaedic Innovation Center at the Department of Orthopaedics, Spencer Fox Eccles School of Medicine, University of Utah, launched a Dynamic Compression Implant System designed to transform fracture fixation, joint fusion, and osteotomy stabilization. The platform technology includes bone screws, intramedullary fixation devices, and hybrid devices that address a broad range of orthopedic surgical indications.
As an alternative to traditional static implants, this system delivers continuous dynamic compression, a proven biomechanical principle that has already revolutionized bone staple technology. 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
An FDA 510(k) submission for the dynamic compression bone screw technology is currently pending clearance.
“This technology represents an important evolution in orthopedic fixation,” said Wade Fallin, Executive Director of the LS Peery, MD Orthopaedic Innovation Center and Dr. Louis S. and Janet B. Peery Presidential Research Professor. “Dynamic compression has demonstrated clear biomechanical and clinical advantages. With our patented platform, we believe we are on the cusp of transforming orthopedic surgery worldwide.”
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.
Previously, the University of Utah Orthopaedic Innovation Center was granted FDA clearance for its Bone Bolt system designed and developed for percutaneous bone fracture fixation.
