Melzi Surgical to Present at the MedTech Strategist Innovation Summit 2022
In-person presentation on Wednesday, November 16th at 9:45 AM PT
RENO, Nev.–(BUSINESS WIRE)—November 9, 2022 – Melzi Surgical (“Melzi” or the “Company”), a surgical device company dedicated to creating innovative technologies that improve patient outcomes while reducing hospital expenses, today announced Reid Rutherford, CEO of Melzi Surgical will present at the MedTech Strategist Innovation Summit on Wednesday, November 16, 2022 at 9:45 AM PT in San Francisco, CA.
As part of the event, Mr. Rutherford will provide a corporate overview and discuss the Company’s lead device, the Melzi Sharps Finder, a sterile, single-use sharps detection device capable for use in robotic, laparoscopic, and open procedures. The Melzi Sharps Finder was designed by surgeons who understand how frustrating and time-consuming it can be to search for surgical needles and sharps. The use of an adjunct technology, like Melzi Sharps Finder, can bring patient safety, time, financial, and risk benefits. In a lab study, testing results show 13mm, 17mm, and 26mm needles detected at 95% reliability rate. In two recently conducted evaluations of the Melzi Sharps Finder where time to locate (TTL), accuracy, and the time to decide (TTD) were recorded, all of the results from the evaluations were statistically significant.
Based on the demonstrated benefit of the Melzi Sharps Finder to date, a number of top surgeons at leading hospitals in the U.S. have incorporated the Melzi Sharps Finder into their patient safety armamentarium. The Company is working towards its planned aggressive national rollout and expansion of its distributor network in order to grow awareness and adoption and ultimately drive sales in the United States.
In addition to the presentation, Mr. Rutherford will be available for in-person meetings with qualified members of the investment community who are registered to attend the event. For more information about the MedTech Strategist Innovation Summit, please visit the event website here.
