From the cooperation between Ventura Medical Technologies and Hospital Parc TaulÃ, a new method, Taulinoplastia, and a new surgery kit, Pectus Up, are born to correct the Pectus Excavatum. This new technique presents suitable advantages over current used methods.
Pectus Up is a set of tools and implants manufactured with the aim of treating Pectus Excavatum with the Taulinoplastia, being less painful and with a reduced post-operative time than other methods.
The Pectus Excavatum is a congenital deformity of the chest wall, which is characterized by concave shape of the chest, known as the "funnel". The sternum inward sinking is generating pressure on vital organs of the chest, restricting their growth potential, causing shortness of breath and difficulty for breathing. This malformation occurs in 1 out of 800 children and is the most common congenital anomaly of the chest wall (90%). The disease manifests slightly worse at birth and during childhood and adolescence. Ventura Medical Technologies along with the Corporació Sanitària Parc Taulí, have developed a new surgical method (Taulinoplastia) and a new product (Surgery Pectus Up Kit) to fix the Pectus Excavatum, substantially reducing the danger of the surgery and the recovery time postoperative complications.
Specifications
The Pectus Up Surgery Kit consists of a plate with a functional design, several bone fixations and a set of tools that enable Taulinoplastia performance. All Pectus Up Surgery Kit items comply with current regulations regarding materials and treatments, therefore the implant is completely bio inert for the human body. In addition, all necessary studies have been conducted in order the product is fulfilling its function.
