NERVUS
Development of nerve regeneration guides
Project description
The team of hand surgeons and biomechanical researchers has developed a new geometry of nerve regeneration guide.
The NERVUS solution leads to a real improvement in nerve repair not only from a medical point of view, but also in terms of time savings, ease of operation, quality and repeatability of nerve repair. In addition, the proposed solution requires less medical equipment compared to the repairs currently being carried out.
Why does Conectus invest in this project?
The NERVUS proof of concept has already been performed in the laboratory on a test bench. The Conectus investment will demonstrate the system's performance on in vivo tests.
At the origin of the project:
Pr. Philippe A. LIVERNEAUX, Hand surgeon and Full Professor at UNISTRA
Pr. Sybille FACCA, Hand surgeon and Full Professor at UNISTRA
Nadia Bahlouli, Laboratory of Engineering, Computer Science and Imaging Sciences (ICUBE) at the University of Strasbourg.
