Bradshaw Medical was issued two new patents for their innovative instrumentation: U.S. Patent No. D651,712S for medical Rod Cutter Cartridges and Utility Patent No. 8,096,214, B2 for the Ratcheting Head mechanism with Internal Self Locking Adapter.
The Rod Cutter Cartridge design eliminates the need for multiple Rod Cutters in different diameters as the cartridges are modular, allowing for quick change between rod sizes. BMI’s Ratcheting Head with Internal Self Locking Adapters have been revolutionizing the industry since their conception. The compact design and internal positive self-locking mechanism is a first for the orthopedic industry and has set another unsurpassed standard for quality instrumentation.
Further, Bradshaw Medical reported 2011 revenue of US $20.4MM, +16% from 2010.
