Surgical use

Uncompromised versatility

For patients with comorbidities, like diabetes, obesity or immunosuppression, surgery often leads to longer length of stay, more post-surgical complications, higher readmission rates and increased costs.4-13

Mean hospital costs are 119% higher for patients with complication as compared to those without complications14
