Meet Scott DeFelice and the team at OPM as they usher in the next big material innovation in orthopedics. In this MedTech Jam Session, Scott explains how PEKK offers true bone-like mechanics, osseointegration, radiolucency, and intrinsic antibacterial/antiviral performance. Here’s what we learned from Scott:
1. Tackling the Toughest Cases First - From oncology to arthrodesis, OPM’s PEKK implants are solving high-risk, high-complication surgeries.
2. An Infection-Resistant Material - With a 1.5% infection rate vs. 20% for traditional materials, clinicians are rapidly adopting the tech for the most challenging cases.
3. Patient-Matched Precision at Scale - With over 4,500 personalized craniofacial implants delivered and growing into extremity, trauma, and oncology applications, OPM brings perfect-fit, 3D-printed implants to complex cases
