One thing that surprised me is how the whole product comes in a "kit" with instructions and tools. I never thought on those medical devices as something that would come as a lego brick, mainly something that has a huge potential as this. I thought that to perform this kind of operation a ton of material was necessary.
- roveo 6y agoTooth implants also come as "kits".
- BLanen 6y agoThat's actually not that uncommon.
- bluetwo 6y agoAll the fancy bone reconstruction plates come in kits like this with step-by-step instruction manuals.
- magicpin 6y agoOften times when a surgeon is using a product for the first time, a representative from the medical device manufacture will watch the surgery and provide guidance with a laser pointer.
- wittyreference 6y agoMost medical stuff comes as kits. In no small part because each individual manufacturer tends to have their own process for the details - it's not as interchangeable as you'd think. In part I think it's a liability thing. It also helps a lot with sterility.
