Kinetikos Medical

Kinetikos Medical was a medical technology company specializing in the development and manufacture of orthopedic implants and surgical devices for small bone and joint procedures. Headquartered in Carlsbad, California, the company focused on the extremities market, providing solutions for the foot, ankle, hand, wrist, and elbow. Its product portfolio featured innovative systems such as the UNI2 wrist replacement and the Subtalar Maxwell-Brancheau Arthroereisis (MBA) system for flatfoot correction. In 2006, Kinetikos Medical was acquired by Integra LifeSciences for approximately $40 million, a move that significantly strengthened Integra's position in the orthopedic extremities and reconstructive surgery sectors.
