Hey, it's TJ Halverson with Orthopedics This Week.
2
I'm talking to Travis Greenhall, the CEO of SurgenTech, to talk about a new technology they have in the OTW Technology Awards this year.
3
Travis, thanks for joining us again.
4
Why don't you tell us more about DuraShield?
5
TJ, thanks for having me.
6
And I appreciate you guys and what you're doing over there.
7
DuraShield is focused on preventing dural tears.
8
We all know it's a major risk, a major complication during a T-lift procedure.
9
Every surgeon has had it.
10
It's always a nightmare to deal with.
11
Right now, there's ways to fix a Dural tear, but not prevent it.
12
So that's what DuraShield is focused on.
13
It employs a device that allows you to tag the annulus with a silicone ribbon.
14
That silicone ribbon acts as a retractor and a guard, kind of like a bumper.
15
As opposed to have your first assist or your PA hold back with a Nurgert retractor, the Dura, the entire time, this allows you to go down and tag the annulus,
16
hold the Dura back.
17
And then you can also do the same on the contralateral side with the peripheral nerve root.
18
So it allows you to create a larger corridor to pass your instruments, provide adequate carpentry and pass larger implants, which is every surgeon's goal, right?
19
So we focused on that.
20
It's been years in the making.
21
The device has a depth stop.
22
It's fully disposable kit and it's safe, right?
23
That's our goal is to try to make things safe.
24
Every surgeon's had a dural tear, had to deal with the consequences of a dural tear.
25
Sometimes these things are longstanding as well too.
26
So if we could prevent a large percentage of those from happening, that would be phenomenal.
27
It's a great product
28
and hopefully you get it to market soon what do you
29
think the timeline is for getting it to market it's actually really close
30
so we have all the ip is filed we've received patents
31
and it's in with fda currently we are hoping for early fall
32

33

Pronúncia para ficar de olho

O falante usa 9 contrações e formas reduzidas, como we're, can't, don't. Diga-as na forma curta, do jeito que você ouve.

  • Palavras longas — acerte a sílaba tônica: complication /ˌkɑm.pləˈkeɪ.ʃən/, contralateral /ˌkɑntɹəˈlætəɹəl/, peripheral /pəˈɹɪf(ə)ɹ(ə)l/, phenomenal /fɪˈnɒmɪnəl/, optimistic /ˌɒptɪˈmɪstɪk/

  • /l/ final — a língua toca o céu da boca, não vira “u”: dural /ˈd(j)ʊɹ.əl/, contralateral /ˌkɑntɹəˈlætəɹəl/, prevail /pɹɪˈveɪl/, peripheral /pəˈɹɪf(ə)ɹ(ə)l/, phenomenal /fɪˈnɒmɪnəl/

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
