Deep Blue Medical Advances, Inc

Duke University spin-out, Deep Blue Medical Advances has developed a novel hernia mesh to address the unacceptably high rate of hernia occurrence and recurrence. Millions of hernia surgeries are done globally with billions of dollars in clinical cost. Our surgeon-invented T-Line Hernia Mesh with integral suture-like extensions is designed to eliminate a key point of failure for conventional mesh fixation - the mesh, suture, tissue interface - and to provide superior anchor strength. In addition, several additional products are in development, including an anchor clip for even faster, easier implantation; a biosynthetic version of the T-Line Hernia Mesh; and a coated composite version of the T-Line Mesh. Deep Blue products enhance hernia surgery with a potentially significant impact on the $1.1B global hernia device market. Due to its simple yet revolutionary design, the T-Line Hernia Mesh has the potential to reduce hernia occurrence and recurrence by preventing or reducing mesh ...
