The MIRA Surgical Platform is a small surgical device inserted through a patient’s abdomen to support multiquadrant abdominal surgeries.

The company is focusing on colon resections, with the device first being used in August for a hemicolectomy performed by Michael Jobst, MD, at Bryan Medical Center in Lincoln. The procedure was performed as part of a study being conducted under an investigational device exemption from the FDA.

The company said it will use the funds to support the commercialization of the device.

At the Becker's 23rd Annual Spine, Orthopedic and Pain Management-Driven ASC + The Future of Spine Conference, taking place June 11-13 in Chicago, spine surgeons, orthopedic leaders and ASC executives will come together to explore minimally invasive techniques, ASC growth strategies and innovations shaping the future of outpatient spine care.
