Artificial ligament reconstruction
and sports medicine devices

Discuss design and manufacturing for soft-tissue repair needs.

Device development needs for artificial ligament reconstruction.

Sports medicine projects can start with materials, structure, fixation interfaces and intended use. Product classification and design or manufacturing activities are confirmed against applicable TFDA QMS categories and project information.

Materials and structure

Discuss ligament materials and braided structures for the intended use

Fixation interfaces

Review bone fixation components and use requirements

QMS scope review

Confirm applicable categories, including passive tendon prostheses, case by case

An ITRI public report describes OSSAWARE's participation in a cross-sector composite regenerative ligament industry collaboration, with the technology still progressing toward clinical trials and commercialization planning.Read the ITRI report ↗
