TELA Bio to Take Part in Connecting the Dots

MALVERN, Pa., Dec. 05, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TELA Bio, Inc. (NASDAQ: TELA), a commercial-stage medical technology company focused on providing innovative soft-tissue reconstruction solutions that optimize clinical outcomes by prioritizing the preservation and restoration of the patient's own anatomy, announced today that it took part in a segment in Connecting the Dots, a series of branded films presented by MedTech Europe and including a film produced for them by BBC StoryWorks Commercial Productions.

The Connecting the Dots series will include a mini-documentary style film, A Perfect Match, produced for TELA Bio highlighting the use of OviTex® Reinforced Tissue Matrix in hernia repair. Annually, surgeons perform an estimated 20 million hernia repair procedures worldwide. Most of these surgeries involve the use of a mesh implant to strengthen the repair and minimize the risk of recurrence. While a range of hernia reinforcement options exists, including permanent plastic and tissue-derived materials, many prospective patients may not be aware of the newer alternatives available for their hernia surgery.

Connecting The Dots is a new series of branded films presented by MedTech Europe. The series aims to showcase the role of medical technologies in improving the healthcare landscape across the globe and is available at https://www.bbc.com/storyworks/specials/connecting-the-dots/.

“We’re thrilled to take part in this series,” said Antony Koblish, President and CEO of TELA Bio. "This project presents a unique opportunity to educate the public about OviTex and its role in evolving hernia treatment for surgeons and patients.”
