WESTBOROUGH, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#ACLrestoration<\/a>—Miach Orthopaedics, Inc.<\/a>, a company transforming the treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears from reconstruction to restoration with the Bridge-Enhanced ACL Restoration (BEAR\u00ae) Implant, today announced it has entered into a distribution agreement with Veteran\u2019s Health Medical Supply (VHMS). The agreement provides customers in 236 Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare facilities access to the BEAR Implant via the ECAT federal contract.\n<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\nThe BEAR Implant serves as a bridge to restore the patient\u2019s own ACL and is the first medical technology that has been clinically proven to enable healing of a torn ACL. It is a paradigm shift from the current standard of care \u2013 reconstruction that replaces the ACL with a graft. Since commercial launch in fall 2021, more than 700 patients have been treated with the BEAR Implant at over 150 healthcare facilities across the U.S.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cOver the last year, we have made significant progress in making the BEAR Implant available to patients across the U.S.,\u201d said Patrick McBrayer, president and CEO, Miach Orthopaedics. \u201cWe are excited to partner with VHMS to facilitate access to the BEAR Implant for active and retired military personnel served by Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs facilities.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\nThis distribution agreement offers orthopaedic surgeons working in VA and DOD healthcare facilities easier access to the BEAR Implant, as well as incorporates the support of VHMS staff and their longstanding relationships with purchasing departments at these facilities.\n<\/p>\n

\nAbout The BEAR\u00ae Implant
\n
<\/b>The Bridge-Enhanced\u00ae<\/i><\/b> ACL Restoration (BEAR\u00ae<\/i><\/b>) Implant is a proprietary bio-engineered implant used to facilitate healing of the torn ACL. The BEAR Implant is the first medical technology to demonstrate, with Level 1 clinical evidence, that it enables the body to heal its own torn ACL. Unlike reconstruction, which is the current standard of care, the BEAR Implant does not require a second surgical wound site to remove a healthy tendon from another part of the leg or the use of a donor tendon. The BEAR Implant acts as a bridge between the two ends of the torn ACL. The surgeon injects a small amount of the patient\u2019s own blood into the implant and inserts it between the torn ends of the ACL in a minimally invasive procedure. The combination of the BEAR Implant and the patient\u2019s blood enables the body to heal the torn ends of the ACL back together while maintaining the ACL\u2019s original attachments to the femur and tibia. The BEAR Implant is resorbed by the body as the ACL heals.\n<\/p>\n

\nThe BEAR Implant was granted De Novo Approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in December 2020. It is indicated for skeletally mature patients at least 14 years of age with a complete rupture of the ACL, as confirmed by MRI. Patients must have an ACL stump attached to the tibia to facilitate the restoration. The BEAR device must be implanted within 50 days of injury.
