About opitek international
“Perfecting Patient Positioning”
- We want to be “best in class” in this business segment, both with existing products and in our product development phases.
- We work in specialized surgical procedure segments with a high volume of procedures (hip surgery, knee surgery), but are also present in niche positioning cases where we have unique product offerings (lithotomy pediatric positioning)
- Our positioning products offer the end user and the patient, greater safety and lower risk of OR-infections caused by patient-to-patient contamination.
