MMI - Medical Micro Instruments

Via del Paduletto, 10/A - 56011 - Calci-PI

Medical Micro Instruments - MMI develops novel robotic solutions for unmet medical needs. The first product is a robotic platform specifically designed for open microsurgery, allowing surgeons to control two tiny articulated microinstruments that simplify reconstruction procedures after traumatic injuries as well as after tumor removal in soft tissue and bones, and offers the potential for improved surgical success rates and patient outcomes. MMI’s instruments are equipped with the smallest articulated wrist having a 3-millimeter outer diameter and tips just 150 micron in width. The wrist is the key to performing robotic microsurgery in real clinical settings and allows easy manipulation of small sutures, from 9-0 to 12-0 in size. That was possible thanks to the use of advanced materials and novel microfabrication processes The surgeon operates the microinstruments while sitting at the surgical bedside and looking through the operating microscope. MMI’s robotic platform captures surgeon’s hand movements and a scaled-down motion is imposed on the microinstruments.

Orthokey

Piazza Puccini, 26 - 50144 - Firenze-FI

Othokey is a dynamic company founded in 2005 by a team of people who have been working for 20 years in the field of computer-assisted orthopaedic surgery. The approach used in the product design phases follows three objectives: speed, simplicity and accuracy. Based on the surgeon's experience, Orthokey has developed a BLU-IGS CAS (computer assisted surgery) platform, which integrates anatomical data, surgical workflows, and biomechanical models to support the orthopaedic surgeon during surgery. Different solutions have been developed according to the surgical procedures, focused on the lower limbs. Orthokey has also developed: Perseus, a cutting guide, enhanced by inertial sensors, which helps the physician to perform perfect resections, with less fatigue and morbidity than the conventional technique; KiRA - quick kinematic evaluation device: KiRA is a medical device for outpatient use. KiRA supports the analysis of knee joint kinematics and dynamic laxity, providing both real-time graphics and quantitative examination information.
