Profile: Orthovita is a biomaterials company with proprietary technologies applied to the development of biostructures. We focus on novel products for use in spine surgery and in the repair of osteoporotic fractures. Our autograft is the gold standard, which provides three essentials of effective healing including Scaffold, Cells(osteogenesis) and Signal(osteoinduction). Vitoss Scaffold delivers an ideal environment for cells and signals from the site or from added bone marrow. Our Vitagel Surgical Hemostat is a FDA approved Class III medical device used to control bleeding and facilitate healing while utilizing the patient's own biology. It benefits include autologous blood source, requires ~10 mL's of blood, can be prepared without needles, no capital equipment expense, and FDA approved as a surgical hemostat.
