OrthoPediatrics Corp. KIDS | 0.00 |
OrthoPediatrics Corp. ("OrthoPediatrics" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:KIDS), a company focused exclusively on advancing the field of pediatric orthopedics, today announced an exclusive distribution agreement with OSSIO, Inc. ("OSSIO") that brings U.S. children’s hospitals nationwide a bio-integrative, metal-free fixation technology ideally suited for treatment of fractures and deformities in pediatric patients.
After performing their fixation function, OSSIOfiber® implants are gradually replaced by the patient’s newly formed bone during the natural healing process. This technological advance in material science decreases the need for hardware removal surgeries that pediatric patients who initially receive metal implants usually receive.
