VANCOUVER, British Columbia\u2013(<\/strong>BUSINESS WIRE<\/strong><\/a>)\u2013Tecnologia PrecisionOS<\/a>\u00a0(\u201cPrecisionOS\u201d) announced today that it has secured $2.3 million in Series A funding led by\u00a0<\/strong>AO Invest<\/strong><\/a>, com sede em Davos, Su\u00ed\u00e7a, ao lado de outros investidores n\u00e3o divulgados.<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

PrecisionOS fornece educa\u00e7\u00e3o cir\u00fargica ortop\u00e9dica em realidade virtual (VR)<\/a>. Seu software permite que os cirurgi\u00f5es realizem procedimentos m\u00e9dicos simulados em uma sala de cirurgia digital realista e oferece feedback m\u00e9trico para ajudar os usu\u00e1rios a melhorar suas t\u00e9cnicas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPrecisionOS is delighted to be cooperating with an international organization that is a recognized leader in education for surgeons and operating room personnel around the world,\u201d says Dr. Danny P. Goel<\/a>, orthopedic surgeon, co-founder and CEO at PrecisionOS. \u201cPrecisionOS technology is working to create a virtual language able to add depth of understanding that simply cannot be achieved using current simulation tools. Adopting VR as a way of improving decision-making is directly relevant for patients and value-based care.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PrecisionOS is led by a diverse collection of individuals who are experts in their fields. Company co-founders Colin O\u2019Connor (CTO) and Roberto Oliveira (CCO) have nearly 50 years of collective experience in the software and gaming industries. Their skill in VR development has allowed the team to create the gold standard for surgical education by building simula\u00e7\u00f5es interativas<\/a> that objectify and enhance performance. Currently a practicing surgeon as well as CEO of PrecisionOS, Dr. Goel provides insight into patients\u2019 medical needs and helps the software target working surgeons effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cVR\u2019s ability to offer a safe environment to make mistakes is highly valuable in fornecendo aos cirurgi\u00f5es os blocos de constru\u00e7\u00e3o<\/a> on which to learn,\u201d says Dr. Goel. \u201cIt allows surgeons to practice, improve their decision-making, and, importantly, have the opportunity to fail. This offers a great amount of value to our surgeons \u2013 and ultimately to our patients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor all of us at AO Invest, as is the case for our partners at PrecisionOS, the patients and surgeons are always center stage: their needs are of the utmost importance to us,\u201d said Michel Orsinger, chairman of AO Invest. \u201cIn addition to responding to requirements they have already identified, we also work to pre-empt needs that will arise as the healthcare environment changes and technology advances. We evaluated several VR companies all over the world, and PrecisionOS\u2019s technology convinced us through its accuracy, quality, and overall approach to education in VR. The feel of the product is extremely impressive. We believe that their platform holds the potential to change surgical education and the standard of care globally.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking ahead, PrecisionOS is working on developing a preoperative planning tool that allows surgeons to introduce images of a specific patient\u2019s anatomy to the software prior to conducting a procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThis area poses several challenges and novel ways to support surgeons all over the world,\u201d says Dr. Goel. \u201cGiven our mission, we are aggressively working towards a solution to benefit the orthopedic patients of today and tomorrow.\u201d\u200d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
