The ACP Max device is a buffy-coat-based system used to facilitate the safe and rapid preparation of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from a sample of the patient's own blood.
 
Interest in the use of autologous blood products in various orthopedic procedures has been on the rise. PRP can be used at the point of care for treatment of osteoarthritis or mixed with autograft or allograft bone prior to application.

ACP Max™ PRP System

The Arthrex ACP double-syringe system is used to facilitate the safe and rapid preparation of autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from a small sample of blood at the patient’s point of care. The PRP can be mixed with autograft and allograft bone prior to application to an orthopedic surgical site as deemed necessary by the clinical use requirements. There has been increased interest in autologous blood products for use in a number of orthopedic therapies.

Defects in articular cartilage can induce osteoarthritis by causing molecular changes in the synovial fluid. Research in molecular biology discovered the major inducer of osteoarthritis was the general inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1), which plays a key role in accelerating tissue destruction and the repair mechanisms.
 
In a healthy joint, IL-1 and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) are in balanced concentrations. In osteoarthritis, the IL-1Ra produced is insufficient to block the destructive effects of the increased IL-1. The result is inflammation, joint pain, and eventually cartilage destruction. Using the Arthrex IRAP™ ProEAS system, monocytes (a type of white blood cell) from the animal’s harvested blood bind to the glass beads in the device. The cells are stimulated over 24 hours of incubation to produce regenerative and anti-inflammatory proteins without the addition of drugs. The autologous serum produced using the Arthrex IRAP ProEAS device may be used to treat mild to moderate osteoarthritis in animals.

The Arthrex Medical Education Experience

Hi, I'm Chris Adams, vice president of global medical education here at Arthrex. We'd like to invite you to experience a world class education at one of our ArthroLab facilities. As a leader in minimally invasive orthopedics, it's our dedication to medical education that sets us apart. During your visit, you'll have access to our entire portfolio of product solutions and have the opportunity to learn from our skilled teams about the how and why behind our product innovations. You can meet with engineers that make the products you understand the rationale behind the way it's a certain position, or a certain type of implant, or a certain type of suture is used. You don't get that in many places. You will have the opportunity to learn from experts in sports medicine Orthobiologics in musculoskeletal imaging. Experience the latest arthroscopic and minimally invasive techniques in joint preservation and joint replacement procedures. It's pretty much unparalleled with regard to a company's dedication and investment in continuing education physician education. So that intangible benefit of of understanding the genesis of a product, the material properties and how it's used. It really does help you to be expert in the products you're using. Spend time in one of our ArthroLab training facilities, working with our medical education team of orthopedic surgeons and professionals dedicated to helping surgeons treat their patients better. With an unprecedented emphasis on hands on learning. The ability to go there, see a technique, learn about the indications, see how it's done, and then to go into the lab and do the technique with people that are expert at the technique, watching and helping. There's no better way than to visit. Educating healthcare professionals is our top priority, and that's evident when you meet with our founder and president, Reinhold Schmieding. Not only do you get a great sense of his passion in general, but you specifically get to see what he's really put together for the betterment of surgeons and for surgeon education. And he wants the best from the products to the education. He really is passionate about having the best in all respects of orthopedics. We understand that your time is valuable, so our staff strives to make your visit effortless. They really make it efficient for you. The staff plans out your visit. You can see whatever specialties you want to see. They have that all choreographed perfectly. And then you come. Back home and you can talk to your patient and look them right in the eye and say, I not only know that this product works, I know why it works. I know how it works. I know why it's better than other products. I'm standing on the shoulders of a huge support team at Arthrex that's helped us get to this point where we're going to put this certain implant into your body with great confidence that you will have as good an outcome as possible. We look forward to hosting you for a single day lab or at one of our medical education courses. If you're interested in attending an event, please get in touch with your local Arthrex representative. We hope to see you here soon.

Technology is what sets the Angel system apart from the competition. The Angel system uses a proprietary platelet sensor and 1-button automation to prepare customized platelet-rich plasma (PRP) formulations. The Angel system is the only PRP device that can deliver platelet concentrations up to 18x baseline, with adjustable leukocyte concentrations.
 
The Angel system incorporates 3 sensors to accurately separate blood components using cell- specific wavelengths of light to increase cellular yields. Absorption of 470 nm light detects platelets and leukocytes, 940 nm detects erythrocytes, and the 1300 nm wavelength corrects for ambient light and the presence of air bubbles.

Defects in articular cartilage can induce osteoarthritis by causing molecular changes in the synovial fluid. Research in molecular biology discovered the major inducer of osteoarthritis was the general inflammatory cytokine interleukin-1 (IL-1) which plays a key role in accelerating tissue destruction and the repair mechanisms.
 
In a healthy joint, IL-1 and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) are in balanced concentrations. In cases of osteoarthritis, there is not sufficient IL-1Ra produced to block the destructive effects of the increased IL-1. The result is inflammation, joint pain, and eventually cartilage destruction. In the IRAP II system, monocytes (a type of white blood cell) bind to the glass beads. The cells are then stimulated to produce regenerative and anti-inflammatory proteins without the addition of drugs. This process takes place over an incubation period of 24 hours.
 
IRAP II is used to treat mild to moderate osteoarthritis in animals.

IRAP II™ System

The Thrombinator system is designed to produce autologous serum at the point of care. This autologous serum helps improve the handling of graft tissue hydrated with platelet-rich plasma or bone marrow aspirate by activating the clotting cascade to produce a gel that serves as a binding agent for graft tissue material. The Thrombinator process applies the principles of the clotting cascade to produce autologous serum without the use of harsh chemical reagents.

Thrombinator™ System

Autologous Blood Products

Autologous blood products have created a&nbsp;growing interest for use in a number of&nbsp;therapies.The aim of technologies like ACP&nbsp;(Autologous Conditioned Plasma) is to&nbsp;provide a method of providing concentrated&nbsp;levels of beneficial growth factors for use at&nbsp;the point of care.
 
In the IRAP II, monocytes (a type of white blood cell) bind to the glass beads. The cells are then stimulated to produce regenerative and anti-inflammatory proteins without the addition of drugs. This process takes place over an incubation period of 24 hours. IRAP II is used to treat mild to moderate osteoarthritis.
