Product Use
Bone Overgrowth
In patients, excessive bone growth often blocks easy access to screws, making their removal cumbersome.
Screw Stability Issues
Bone integrity, often weakened due to infections, becomes a challenge. This can result in screw rotation, making the removal process even more complex.
Broken Implements
One of the monumental challenges orthopedic surgeons face is the removal of broken intramedullary nails. If not addressed efficiently, these broken pieces can lead to further complications.
Company Roadmap
Product Finalization
The primary focus lies in refining the Ancerix Toolkit. This means leveraging standard materials and simplifying manufacturing processes to create a comprehensive set of instruments housed in a sterilization box.
Market Introduction
Upon commencing manufacturing, the strategy expands to include active participation in trade shows to showcase the product's utility. Additionally, efforts will be directed toward recruiting distributors, informing buying services, and disseminating information to orthopedic surgeons.
Sales Concentration
The emphasis will be on the sales of this innovative add-on product. Given the established market, its competitive pricing, and the clear articulation of its value, it targets a user group that is likely to be receptive.
