WARSAW, Ind., Dec. 13, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- OrthoPediatrics Corp. (NASDAQ: KIDS), a company exclusively focused on advancing the field of pediatric orthopedics, announced today the full-scale U.S. launch of its 26th surgical system, the RESPONSE 4.5/5.0mm System following U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance in October. The Company’s newest system represents a significant product expansion for physicians to treat complex scoliosis in smaller stature patients at a younger age. The RESPONSE 4.5/5.0mm System, designed in collaboration with pediatric orthopedic surgeons, builds upon the successful implant and instrument technology of the RESPONSE 5.5/6.0mm System to expand the platform offering. The new small stature scoliosis system offers a hybrid implant technology allowing the option of either a 4.5mm rod in cobalt-chromium or 5.0mm rod in titanium or cobalt-chromium, multiple implant connector options, and innovative, new instrumentation. Dr. Jonathan Phillips, Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon & Associate Professor of Orthopedics at University of Central Florida, College of Medicine, served as a design surgeon for the small stature system and commented, “I am excited for the launch of the highly anticipated small stature RESPONSE system from the leader in children’s orthopedic technologies. Conceived to mesh seamlessly with the exceptionally successful RESPONSE system for larger statures, this instrumentation has been designed to serve a unique weight and size demographic in children’s orthopedics and extends the versatility of OrthoPediatrics’ spinal instrumentation options. I look forward to this radical improvement to care for a diverse cohort of the most underserved children.” RESPONSE™ Spine System About OrthoPediatrics Corp. Investor Contacts |
