What Spirair learned about polydioxanone in its innovative use of the absorbable polymer for a new implant

A new therapy for nasal septal deviation builds on decades of polydioxanone research and development.

When Spirair co-founders Brandon McCutcheon, MD and James Kintzing, PhD, began developing SeptAlign™, they needed to find a material that could hold the nasal septum under tension during cartilage remodeling but also resorb within an appropriate time frame.

They shared how they identified the unmet need for a treatment option like SeptAlign, how they selected the material for SeptAlign, and what’s next for Spirair following SeptAlign’s FDA clearance. Read their contributed article in Medical Design & Outsourcing for more.
