Optimal Fixation for Cancellous BoneThis screw is purpose-built for cancellous bone, utilizing a 16mm partial thread with a large pitch to enhance bone purchase. Its self-tapping tip and high thread precision favor secure fixation while promoting compression at the fracture site, which is crucial for healing.
Sterile, Ready-to-Use PackagingEach screw is pre-sterilized and presented in an individual blister pack. This guarantees immediate usability in surgical settings and minimizes contamination risks. The robust packaging extends shelf life up to five years with proper storage away from moisture and corrosive substances.
MRI Compatibility and Material VersatilityManufactured in both medical-grade stainless steel and titanium, these screws cater to varying clinical needs. Titanium versions are MRI compatible, broadening their application spectrum. Both options come with a polished or passivated surface finish for improved biocompatibility and reduced corrosion risk.
FAQs of 6.5mm Cancellous Screw (16mm Threaded):
Q: How is the 6.5mm Cancellous Screw (16mm Threaded) inserted during surgery?
A: The screw is inserted manually using standard orthopedic instrumentation, such as a compatible screwdriver with a hexagonal or slotted interface. A pre-drilled hole is recommended for precise placement and to facilitate the self-tapping feature of the screw tip.
Q: What are the benefits of the 16mm partially threaded design with a high thread pitch?
A: The 16mm partial thread and large pitch offer superior fixation in cancellous bone, providing secure purchase and effective compression at the fracture site. This design aids in stabilizing the bone fragments, which can accelerate the healing process.
Q: When should a titanium version be chosen over a stainless steel screw?
A: Opt for the titanium variant when MRI compatibility is necessary, such as for patients requiring postoperative imaging. Titaniums biocompatibility also makes it ideal for patients with known sensitivities to stainless steel.
Q: Where should the screws be stored before use?
A: Store the screws in a clean, dry environment, away from corrosive agents and moisture, to maintain sterility and preserve their five-year shelf life. Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures and contaminants.
Q: What packaging and sterility assurances are provided with each screw?
A: Each screw is sterile and packaged individually in a sealed blister pack, ensuring it arrives ready for immediate surgical use while minimizing the risk of contamination.
Q: How does the screw achieve high precision and compatibility in orthopedic procedures?
A: The screw is machined with precision threading and meets ISO 13485 and CE standards, guaranteeing consistent accuracy in dimensions and high compatibility with standard orthopedic tools. This ensures predictable outcomes in bone fixation surgeries.
