Ormi protects the other side of the joint

Sparta’s Galene can mimic the properties of native cartilage. The compressive and shear force properties of Galene closely match those of natural cartilage, protecting the joint during various movements. Its debut takes shape through the Ormi implant, a revolutionary cartilage-mimicking device firmly anchored to a titanium base. Let's explore how Ormi protects the other side of the joint to ensure comprehensive restoration and long-term joint health.

Ormi protects the other side of the joint

Understanding Joint Functioning

The knee joint operates as a complex system, with each component playing a vital role in facilitating movement and stability. When one side of the joint is compromised due to injury, degeneration, or arthritis, it can place added stress on the opposite side, leading to further damage and deterioration over time.

Ormi's Protective Role

Ormi goes beyond simply treating localized issues within the knee joint; it serves as a safeguard for the entire joint, protecting the opposing side from undue stress and wear. By restoring damaged cartilage and providing structural support, Ormi helps distribute forces evenly across the joint, minimizing the risk of secondary damage and preserving joint integrity.

Key Features of Ormi's Protective Function

Ormi's biomimetic design and precise placement ensure balanced load distribution within the knee joint, reducing the strain on the unaffected side and promoting overall joint health. It reduces the risk of abnormal forces and uneven wear on the opposing side.

Ormi's holistic approach to knee joint restoration provides both localized treatment and protective measures for the entire joint. By addressing issues on one side while safeguarding the other, Ormi ensures comprehensive restoration and long-term joint health. Right now Ormi’s target is the knee, but shortly Sparta plans to expand to other joints.
