Focus on Efficacy, Efficiency and Economics

null

Efficacy

Our implants and instrument systems are designed for clinical efficacy and improved patient outcomes.

Efficiency

From innovative implants and instrumentation to training and education to our extreme commitment to service.

Economics

Understanding customer needs from the exam room to the operating room to the board room.

Efficacy

Founded by an orthopaedic surgeon and biomedical engineer, Exactech has a unique perspective on product development. Our implants and instrument systems are designed for clinical efficacy and improved patient outcomes.

  • Optetrak® knee system: excellent long-term clinical performance with 98% implant survival rates1
  • Equinoxe® platform shoulder system: bone preservation provides platform for potential future revisions2; 7x reduction in scapular notching lowers reverse complications3-5
  • InterSpace®: the most widely studied antibiotic spacer technology in the world, with a 96.1% eradication rate after second-stage revisions6
  • Exactech Biologics: Optimized DBM concentration for new bone formation7; resistant to lavage8

  • Optimized instrument trays designed to improve O.R. work flow
  • Highly skilled representatives are cross-trained to provide surgical support across product lines

Economics

Exactech understands customer needs from the exam room to the operating room to the board room.

  • Studies demonstrate that implant longevity9-10 lowers the incidence of costly revision11
  • Platform implant and instrument systems address the continuum of care and facilitate intra-operative flexibility
  • Exactech’s Accelerated Recovery Technique (ART®) improves patient satisfaction, enhances hospital cost structure12
  • Pre-formed spacer and unique bone cement delivery system
