Before the 1960s, smallpox vaccination campaigns relied on unreliable jet injectors that slowed delivery of the vaccine. Precision Medical Products, Inc., changed that with the introduction of the bifurcated needle, which holds a dose of reconstituted smallpox vaccine in its prongs and punctures a person’s skin easily to the ideal depth for delivery. Our engineers designed the needle, and our team of machinists and metalworkers perfected to how to manufacture it in bulk. By the end of the 1960s, thanks to the success of the bifurcated needle, smallpox was the only disease that had been eradicated in humans.

The performance of minimally invasive surgery, or MIS, using endoscopic, laparoscopic, or catheter-based solutions has become increasingly common for a number of reasons. Because MIS is performed without making a major incision, patients experience less trauma, enjoy shorter hospital stays, and recover more quickly. Hospitals, whose reimbursement is being increasingly impacted by quality measures and episode-of-care payments, also see significant benefits.
