北卡罗来纳州达勒姆，2024年5月21日/PRNewswire/--深蓝医学进步今天宣布，它获得了天使资本协会（ACA）颁发的路易斯·维拉洛布斯奖-生命科学奖，该协会是一个由15000多名合格天使投资者和250多个天使团体、合格平台和北美家族理财办公室组成的专业协会。。

This award recognizes the most ingenious and innovative ideas recently financed by members of the Angel Capital Association. Only two Luis Villalobos Awards are given each year – one in the Technology category and one in the Life Sciences category. The award honors Luis Villalobos, who founded the Tech Coast Angels, one of the largest and most respected angel organizations in the world.

该奖项表彰了最近由天使资本协会（Angel Capital Association）成员资助的最具独创性和创新性的想法。每年只颁发两项路易斯·维拉洛布斯奖——一项是技术类奖项，另一项是生命科学类奖项。该奖项授予路易斯·维拉洛博斯（LuisVillalobos），他创立了科技海岸天使组织（TechCoast Angels），这是世界上最大和最受尊重的天使组织之一。

Award winners are startups recognized at the annual Summit Meeting each year for their strong track record of world-changing, best-in-class innovation and growth..

获奖者是每年在年度峰会上因其在改变世界、创新和增长方面的良好记录而获得认可的初创公司。。

Award winner Deep Blue Medical is transforming soft tissue surgery by developing next generation surgical devices to prevent soft tissue surgery failure. In the USA each year, 11% of 5M abdominal surgical site closings go on to become hernias requiring repair.  Further, ~600K+ abdominal hernia repairs suffer from a 32% long-term failure rate with a $10B annual cost.

获奖者深蓝医疗（Deep Blue Medical）正在通过开发下一代手术设备来改变软组织手术，以防止软组织手术失败。在美国，每年有500万腹部手术部位关闭，其中11%会成为需要修复的疝气。此外，约60多万腹股沟疝修补术的长期失败率为32%，年费用为100亿美元。

This failure in soft tissue surgery due to suture pull-through of tissue or mesh ('cheesewiring') is unacceptably common, and is directly related to a lack of fast, reliable reinforcement that reduces tissue stress. It's very painful for the patient and leads to recurrence and re-operation. Deep Blue Medical's soft tissue surgery platform utilizes mesh extension sutures that distribute and reduce tension at the surgical site to reduce cheesewiring, reduce pain, and provide a quick, convenient surgical approach..

由于缝合线穿过组织或网状物（“cheesewiring”）而导致的软组织手术失败是不可接受的常见现象，并且与缺乏快速，可靠的增强来减少组织应力直接相关。这对患者来说非常痛苦，并导致复发和再次手术。深蓝医疗的软组织手术平台利用网状延伸缝线，在手术部位分布并减少张力，以减少乳酪缠绕，减轻疼痛，并提供快速，方便的手术方法。。

The Luis Villalobos Award was received by the Deep Blue Medical CEO, Bill Perry, at the 2024 ACA Summit in Columbus, OH, on May 13. Says Perry, 'We are honored to have received this prestigious award, and grateful to our supporters. If we are reaching new heights, it is because we are lifted up by our clinicians and investor partners, the lifeblood of the company.'.

5月13日，深蓝医疗首席执行官比尔·佩里在俄亥俄州哥伦布举行的2024年ACA峰会上获得了路易斯·维拉洛布斯奖。佩里说，“我们很荣幸能获得这个久负盛名的奖项，并感谢我们的支持者。如果我们正在达到新的高度，那是因为我们的临床医生和投资者合作伙伴（公司的生命线）将我们提升了。”。

Also in attendance at the Summit was surgeon-inventor Howie Levinson: 'As a surgeon, I can help one patient at a time, but as an inventor I am deeply gratified to witness how an innovative platform can be developed and leveraged to help many more patients find relief and healing.'

外科医生发明家豪伊·莱文森（HowieLevinson）也出席了此次峰会：“作为一名外科医生，我可以一次帮助一名患者，但作为一名发明家，我非常高兴看到如何开发和利用创新平台来帮助更多患者找到缓解和愈合的方法。”
