Restoring Feeling and Function to Damaged Nerves

Traumatic injuries and surgical procedures can damage peripheral nerves and cause the loss of muscle or organ function, pain, and the loss of sensation. Axogen has a portfolio of regenerative medicine products to enable surgeons to repair peripheral nerves without the need to harvest nerves from a patient’s own body. We spoke to Karen Zaderej, CEO of Axogen, about peripheral nerve injuries, the company’s portfolio of products, and how it is changing the way surgeons can repair and regenerate damaged nerves.
