ATLANTA, May 4, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Vivex Biomedical, Inc.

In total, 96% of the 75 patients with a total of 85 levels achieved fusion at 12 months – 96% of patients, 96.5% of levels treated.

The VIA product line was first launched in August of 2014 and has grown significantly with adoption across several orthopaedic surgical specialties. VIA Graft retains a biocompatible, mesenchymal stem cell-rich population that includes marrow-isolated adult multi-lineage inducible cells. The product also utilizes a proprietary non-DMSO cryoprotectant, affording optimal cell protection and streamlined preparation in the OR.
