Jeffrey Jaime discusses a stem cell treatment available in Mexico that could disrupt knee and hip replacement surgery. The procedure implants a scaffold first, then adds stem cells. U.S. approval is expected to lag by five to ten years.
I'm actually working like whisper shot because we want to be the first ones in the world to offer that in Mexico because Obviously, I mean, U.S. is not going to approve that probably for like five, 10 years because again, like this is going to take away from knee and hip replacements, right? And that's like the biggest money generator for hospitals. So you're basically disrupting the whole medical care system. So they're going to fight back as much as they can. It's going to be interesting.
So the scaffolding goes in first. It sounds like a very unique approach. I haven't heard of this before. The scaffolding goes in first and then the stem cells. I'm assum using someone's own stem cells like their marrow or their fat cells. Or are you using a different source of stem cells to go in on top of that scaffolding?
Yeah, we can talk about that.
