Orthopedic device companies have responded to payors’ adoption of bundled payments and FDA’s promotion of digital health tools by commercializing products that track patients beyond the O.R. Digital health tools, including wearables, provide device companies with revenue streams that respond to hospitals’ episode of care requirements and patients’ personalized medicine needs, while simultaneously creating a feedback loop for product ideas. Christopher E. Pelt, M.D., a surgeon enrolled in Zimmer Biomet’s mymobility clinical study with the Apple Watch app, offered perspective on the benefits of wearables and shares ways that the technology will impact patients, surgeons and device companies in the future.]]>

Coatings have long been considered an avenue for infection prevention in orthopedic procedures. These coatings, some of which utilize silver, have largely not been commercialized because regulators seek greater evidence of their safety, creating a long, expensive road for device companies. Announcements in the last half of 2018 and early 2019 indicate that companies continue to push to get them on the market and that productive conversations are taking place with regulators. This session began with a history of antimicrobial coatings followed by a look at recent research and technology.]]>
