Production of body compatible surgical materials

The production of biocompatible surgical materials encompasses the development and production of biocompatible instruments, implants, and sutures used during surgical procedures. Current challenges in this field include strict compliance with regulatory requirements and ensuring the highest quality standards. Trends such as the use of advanced materials, including biocompatible polycarbonates and titanium alloys, and the integration of Industry 4.0 technologies for process optimization are shaping the industry. These developments aim to increase patient safety and improve efficiency in surgical practice.
