Product Overview

Clamping Jaw, Green Staple
NA - 6983-1030


Device Description

A wire intended for the fixation of bone fractures that may be implanted or used short-term (e.g., to hold a plate in the correct position during an intervention). It may be used: 1) as a cerclage wire to aid bone fixation; 2) in a loop or figure-of-eight configuration to reattach, e.g., the tip of the elbow (olecranon), tibial tubercle, or greater trochanter; 3) to augment bone screw/plate fixation; or 4) as a Kirschner wire or K-Wire to stiffen (arthrodese) a toe or finger. It is made of metal [e.g., stainless steel, cobalt-chrome (Co-Cr)], and may be malleable or rigid; some types include a nut designed to be attached to the wire to prevent wire migration. This is a single-use device.
