Episode Description

What if trauma care didn't require a full surgical team or a giant toolbox to save lives in critical moments? In this episode of Med Tech Gurus, Dr. Adam Power, vascular surgeon and co-founder of Frontline Medical Technologies, takes us inside the development of the COBRA-OS—an ultra-simplified REBOA device that's transforming trauma care.

From war zones to rural communities, Dr. Power explains how miniaturization and smart design make this innovation faster, safer, and more accessible—without sacrificing patient outcomes. We discuss the challenges of commercialization, academic innovation, and the evolving role of physicians as entrepreneurs. Gurus, this episode is a masterclass in turning front-line insight into global impact. Don't miss it!
