Additionally, the Company reported that it filed a 510(k) pre-market notification application to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requesting regulatory clearance for the SEER.
Bovie Medical Corporation also received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to market its ICON GP generator to be used in general surgery and in conjunction with Bovie’s Polarian vessel sealing instruments. As of this date, a 510K application has not been filed for the Polarian instruments.
Andrew Makrides, president of Bovie stated, “These are significant milestones and are testaments to Bovie’s continued commitment to be an innovative player in the field of medical equipment. The Company is progressing in the development of its Polarian vessel sealing device and is developing prototypes for additional areas of surgery for the SEER. We believe the Polarian and the SEER product lines target new and significantly larger markets for Bovie.
As previously stated, discussions continue with larger companies regarding possible strategic partnerships involving some of the Company’s new product efforts.”
