About Endo Button Close Loop
The Endo Button is extensively used in orthopedic surgery, particularly in the repair and rebuilding of the knee s anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). It is a non-traditional method of connecting grafts to bone during ACL restoration treatments.
An Endobutton Close Loop is a device used in orthopedic surgery to connect grafts to bone during the repair or rebuilding of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL).
Advanced Features:
- Pre-assembled loop
- High tensile strength
- Radiolucent properties
- Available in multiple loop sizes
- Compatible with ACL reconstruction
- Sterile and ready-to-use packaging
High Performance UHMWPE Fiber LoopThe loop material, made from ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber, provides exceptional durability and tensile strength. Radiolucent by design, it ensures minimal interference with imaging while maintaining secure fixation of soft tissues. The pre-assembled loop streamlines operations and fits various surgical requirements.
Titanium Alloy/Stainless Steel ButtonManufactured from premium titanium alloy or stainless steel, the flat button offers a low profile and features several suture holes to accommodate a wide range of suturing techniques. Its lightweight construction (<5g) and corrosion-resistant finish deliver lasting performance without compromising patient safety.
Surgical Grade Precision and SafetyThe Endo Button Close Loop achieves surgical grade accuracy in femoral or tibial fixation of soft tissues. CE and ISO 13485 certifications confirm its compliance with rigorous international standards. Sterilized via EO methodology, the device arrives ready for immediate use during orthopedic procedures.
FAQ's of Endo Button Close Loop:
Q: How is the Endo Button Close Loop used during orthopedic surgery?
A: The Endo Button Close Loop is manually positioned to secure soft tissues to bone, commonly during ligament reconstruction or tendon fixation. Its pre-assembled loop and multi-hole button design facilitate high-precision femoral or tibial fixation.
Q: What are the benefits of UHMWPE fiber in the loop material?
A: UHMWPE fiber provides high tensile strength, radiolucency for clear imaging, exceptional durability, and biocompatibility, ensuring secure and long-lasting tissue fixation during surgery.
Q: When should surgeons choose loop lengths from 15mm to 50mm?
A: Surgeons select the appropriate loop length based on patient anatomy, surgical technique, and desired tissue tension, ensuring optimal fixation and structural integrity in various orthopedic procedures.
Q: Where is the Endo Button Close Loop typically stored before use?
A: Store the device in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain sterility and structural integrity, as recommended in its storage instructions.
Q: What process is used for sterilizing the Endo Button Close Loop?
A: Each device undergoes EO (ethylene oxide) sterilization, making it safe for single-use application in sterile surgical environments.
Q: What advantages does the multi-hole button design offer?
A: The multi-hole design enhances suture compatibility, allowing for varied fixation techniques and increasing versatility during different ligament or tendon surgical procedures.
Q: Which regulatory standards does the Endo Button Close Loop meet?
A: This surgical fixation device is CE marked and ISO 13485 certified, demonstrating compliance with international quality and safety standards for medical devices.
