WARSAW, Ind., Sept. 03, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — OrthoPediatrics Corp. (“OrthoPediatrics” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: KIDS), a company focused exclusively on advancing the field of pediatric orthopedics, today announced completion of the 1,000th surgery utilizing its Pediatric Nailing Platform | FEMUR (“PNP | FEMUR”), the first system specifically designed and developed to address the unique pediatric anatomies when treating femoral fractures and deformity correction procedures.
PNP | FEMUR, which received FDA 510(k) clearance in 2018, is an intramedullary nailing system to stabilize fractures and deformity correction osteotomies. It features a full suite of innovative instrumentation offering two distinct child and adolescent implant options optimized to handle the unique needs of small stature trauma and deformity procedures. The system’s enhanced child sized nails range from 7-9mm and the new adolescent sized nails range from 9-12mm.

The PNP|FEMUR is actually OP’s 2nd generation nailing system, which improved upon almost a decade of learnings from the original PediNail system. Being the first to design and launch a pediatric nailing system, we have an obligation to take those learnings and improve,” commented Joe Hauser, Vice President of OrthoPediatrics’ Trauma & Deformity Correction business. “The thousandth implant represents a great milestone for our company, the many children that have been treated, and their families.
