SMART IMPLANTS AND CUSTOMIZED MEDICAL DEVICES

MedDEV News (zyk). Failed operations, inflammatory reactions, implant loss and resulting re-operation burden the German health system with 1,000,000,000 euros annually.


Konstanz, Germany, 23.05.2017. Chronic inflammatory reactions and poor ingrowth of implants are the reason for the above-described complication rates. Clinical investigations show clearly that surfaces of implants used must be cell-attractively functionalized and engineered.
 Patented MIMICKING BONE TECHNOLOGY (MBT), developed by stimOS GmbH, works like a "stealth cap", a “magic hood” for the implant. The patient's organism perceives the implant no longer as a piece of artificial material, but recognizes the implant as bone-identic material - implants are better integrated, inflammatory reactions are avoided.

This unique refining method (MBT) can be used on all implant materials. In addition, different active substances can be embedded in the modified implant surface. They can be released and accurately dosed at the desired location in the patient's body after operation.
