Responsible Care of Patients

An estimated 30%3 of Orthopaedic cases may result in infection and more than 65%4 of the infection are related to biofilm. ZNN with Bactiguard Technology reduces the risk of bacterial adhesion and subsequent biofilm formation5 for patients that require an intramedullary nail while avoiding the challenges associated with antibiotic resistance.
