Medicon Village

Project manager - Suturion

Suturion AB is a medical device startup company based in Lund, Medicon Village, founded by Dr. Gabriel Börner in 2018. The company develops devices for the wound closure market. Today, the abdominal fascia is closed by the surgeon working manually with a needle driver and a suture. This is time consuming and unnecessary complications often occurs. As many as 1/3 of the patients will suffer from any type of complications related to the closure of the abdomen. Complications that may occur are incisional hernias, burst abdomen and infections.

With the technology developed by Suturion, the company strives to standardize the closure of the abdominal wall, which will save time and money for both patients and healthcare professionals. Another positive outcome is a reduction in the number of complications, which in many cases lead to a new operation.

Currently there are two products: a Suturion tool and needle and suture to use with it. There are more products within the surgical area in the pre study phase.

The company is in an expansive phase with a commercial launch in the next few months in Europe and the US.
