Solenic Medical is structured around development of a medical device designed to provide non-invasive treatment for infected metallic implants in the body. Using alternating magnetic fields (AMF) generated by external coils to eradicate biofilm on the surface of medical implants, the firm's device enables doctors to address major complications of various surgeries, such as knee and hip replacements, as well as the plates and rods that define trauma-related implants. Using technology invented at the University of Texas Southwestern, Solenic is leveraging the unique properties of alternating magnetic fields (AMF) generated by external coils to eradicate biofilm on the surface of medical implants. This non-invasive treatment addresses a major complication of various surgeries such as knee and hip replacements, as well as in trauma related implants such as plates and rods. This is particularly important given an aging population and the rapid increase in the number of these procedures being performed every year.
