EnBIO
today launched its OsteoZipTM surface, which has been designed to
enhance the osteointegration and early bone fixation of orthopedic
implants into host bone tissue. OsteoZip is a revolutionary new
hydroxyapatite (HA) surface that is ideal for orthopedic and dental
implants. Applied and enabled by EnBIO's CoBlastTM surface modification
process, OsteoZip heralds a new era of functional surfaces for
orthopedic implants. The CoBlast process is non-complex, room
temperature and requires no wet chemistry, providing orthopedic implant
OEMs with a state-of-the-art surface at a competitive cost. The CoBlast
process is in fact a novel variation of grit-blasting-a well practiced
process in the medical device industry-and the CoBlast processing
equipment is essentially a modified version of standard grit blasting
equipment.
As a patient, only you can decide when you are ready for surgery.
Doctors and surgeons may make recommendations, but the call is
ultimately yours. So, what if you just opt to deal with the pain in
your hip, and postpone surgery? As with many medical situations, the
recommendations of your surgeon should be taken seriously. Assuming
your surgeon has recommended surgery, the risks associated with
delaying that surgery may include deterioration of the hip joint,
increased pain and lack of mobility, and not to be overlooked, and the
possibility that less invasive methods of surgery, such as hip
resurfacing, are no longer an option.
