Newly formed Safe Orthopaedics to revolutionize the cost effectiveness, safety, traceability and efficiency of orthopaedic and spinal implant systems (press release)
“Today’s healthcare challenges extend outside the operating room and demand cost-effective, safe and efficient solutions,” says Dominique Petit, founder and CEO of privately held, Paris-based Safe Orthopaedics. “Safe Orthopaedics exists to deliver those technological solutions to the marketplace.”
