US Medical Innovations, LLC Announces New Distribution Agreement With CrossLink Surgical, LLC
based biomedical device sales and distribution company announced today it has expanded its sales network
through a distribution agreement with CrossLink Surgical (http://www.crosslinklifesciences.com/), a subsidiary
of CrossLink Life Sciences, LLC. CrossLink is one of the largest orthopaedic distributors in the U.S. and the
top domestic distributor for Stryker (http://www.stryker.com/) joints.
Under the new agreement, CrossLink will begin distribution of the Canady Hybrid Plasma Scalpel (CHPS)
throughout Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. The partnership will further promote
USMI’s brand and increase market penetration of the CHPS by utilizing CrossLink’s talented and experienced
sales, operations, and logistics teams, all of whom are leaders in the orthopaedic industry with an extensive
and effective track record of introducing new products that not only serve evolving market demands, but help
surgeons improve patient outcomes.
The CHPS is the first multifunctional electrosurgical handpiece in the world. Due to its advanced technology,
surgeons are able to simultaneously cut and coagulate through biological tissue at a temperature of less than
98°F, significantly reducing intraoperative blood loss and operative time, improving wound healing, minimizing
the length of stay for the patient and reducing the risk of hospital acquired infections.
“Crosslink is an experienced group who will provide a much broader reach for USMI and accelerate the
introduction of our product to highly visible healthcare professionals throughout the U.S.,” said Jerome
Canady, MD, CEO & Chief Science Officer of USMI. “The CHP Scalpel’s diversity in clinical applications in
orthopaedic surgery range from total hip replacement and arthoplasty, tourniquetless total knee replacement,
hip and orthopaedic trauma, however the device also provides significant benefits for all clinical
subspecialties.”
CrossLink Surgical is focused on bringing innovative technologies to “niche” orthopaedic markets and
healthcare providers. Its parent company, CrossLink Life Sciences, LLC has a comprehensive orthopaedic
sales force serving all hospitals throughout the southeast.
