THE STORY BEHIND PEDRO – EPISODE 5

From digital design to reality

After hours of engineering, simulations and refinements, the first complete design of PEDRO System was finally ready.

Every component of the spinal fixation system now existed digitally: from polyaxial pedicle screws and rods to locking elements and interbody cages, the latter designed to be manufactured using 3D printing technology.

The next step was clear: turn the digital project into a real, tangible system.

Our engineers sent the designs into production. Additive-manufactured components were entrusted to specialized external partners, while the other components were produced by Leghe Leggere Lavorate, drawing on more than 25 years of experience in manufacturing implantable medical devices for both human and veterinary applications.

Close collaboration between our design engineers and production specialists proved essential. Manufacturing expertise helped identify potential production challenges, refine component geometries and introduce improvements to both performance and production efficiency.

Because a great design doesn't end on a computer screen.

It becomes real when engineering and manufacturing work together.

The first PEDRO System was finally taking physical shape.

Today is World Dog Day.

A day dedicated to the animals that bring companionship, trust and joy into our lives and that are also at the heart of our work every day.

At Overvet, dogs inspire us to keep looking forward.

Through research, engineering and collaboration with veterinary professionals, we develop innovative solutions designed to support surgeons and contribute to better care for their patients.

Because innovation in veterinary medicine has a very clear purpose: helping improve the health, wellbeing and quality of life of our four-legged companions.

Today we celebrate them and the veterinary professionals who take care of them every day.

Happy World Dog Day from Overvet!

THE STORY BEHIND PEDRO – EPISODE 4

From anatomy to 3D design

Once the anatomical measurements had been defined, it was time to turn our research into a real design.

Using 3D mechanical design software, our engineers began developing the first PEDRO System components, working with precise constraints related to dimensions, mechanical loads and stresses.

We started with the largest system, designed for dogs weighing approximately 70 kg, as its dimensions were closest to the human spinal devices we already knew.

The plan was to perfect this first configuration and then adapt the design to the medium and small systems.

The principles behind the threads, component interaction and overall mechanics came from our experience in human spinal fixation. But reducing the dimensions introduced a new challenge: maintaining mechanical performance even in smaller components.

Through dedicated 3D engineering simulations, we analyzed the most highly stressed areas and refined key dimensions to improve the design before manufacturing.

The first PEDRO System was taking shape.

But computer simulations were only the beginning.

The real test would come in the laboratory.

THE STORY BEHIND PEDRO – EPISODE 3

From human experience to veterinary design

The development of PEDRO System started from the experience we had gained over the years working with devices for human spinal surgery.

The initial idea was to take the design principles behind these systems and adapt them to the anatomy of canine patients.

But simply reducing their dimensions wasn't enough.

Dogs can vary enormously in size, weight and skeletal structure. We therefore began by studying vertebral dimensions across different breeds and body sizes, identifying the measurements needed to create a system suitable for the widest possible range of patients.

Once the anatomical data had been collected, the next challenge was to determine how many implant sizes surgeons would need to address this variability in clinical practice.

The result was the development of three different PEDRO System sizes, designed for small, medium and large dogs — from approximately 7 kg to 70 kg.

One concept, adapted to different anatomies.
Because every patient requires the right fit.

THE STORY BEHIND PEDRO – EPISODE 2

Why did we need a new solution?

Every innovation starts by understanding the limits of what already exists.

When we began developing PEDRO System, we first looked at the standard approach for treating degenerative lumbosacral stenosis (DLSS) in dogs.

While effective in many cases, traditional spinal fixation techniques presented well-known challenges, including imaging limitations, a higher risk of surgical site complications and more demanding wound management.

Rather than accepting these limitations, we asked ourselves a simple question:

Could the principles that have transformed human spinal surgery also improve veterinary spinal fixation?

That question marked the beginning of the next step in the PEDRO journey.

Overvet will be at ESB-ITA26!

On August 31 and September 1, 2026, we will be at Politecnico di Milano for the XV Annual Meeting of the Italian Chapter of the European Society of Biomechanics (ESB-ITA).

An important opportunity to meet researchers and professionals and explore the latest developments in biomechanics, a field that plays a fundamental role in the research and development behind innovative solutions for veterinary surgery.

This year's meeting will also feature the thematic symposium “AI-enhanced Biomechanical Modeling: Applications from Research to Bedside”, focusing on the integration of artificial intelligence and physical-based modelling in clinically relevant applications.

For Overvet, being part of this scientific community means continuing to invest in the exchange of knowledge, research and innovation that contribute to the development of increasingly advanced veterinary solutions.

THE STORY BEHIND PEDRO – EPISODE 1

How did PEDRO System begin?

Every innovation starts with a question.

At Overvet, we've always believed that innovation means more than creating something new. It means finding a better solution to an existing challenge.

That's exactly how PEDRO System was born.

In late 2020, our biomedical engineers set out with a clear goal: to rethink spinal fixation for veterinary patients by building on years of experience in human spinal surgery.

The idea was ambitious:
could the principles of human spinal fixation be successfully adapted to dogs?

There was only one way to find out.

When you choose a surgical system, you're not simply purchasing a product. You're choosing accountability.

In veterinary surgery, price should never be the only deciding factor. What truly matters is what lies behind the product: certified quality, full traceability, regulatory compliance, and a manufacturer committed to the highest standards.

The PEDRO System, distributed by Overvet, is manufactured according to ISO 13485 standards using certified Grade 5 medical titanium, with full production traceability, comprehensive technical documentation, and qualified technical support.

Choosing an officially distributed system means relying on a controlled supply chain designed to meet the standards required for professional veterinary practice.

Because quality is not just a product feature—it is a responsibility that accompanies every surgical procedure.
