Product catalog summary
Overview: The document describes a patented design for a superelastic Nitinol bone fixation system, specifically for first metatarsal osteotomies, used in bunionectomies. This system, known as SPEED TRIAD™, offers higher compression than traditional screw constructs and provides a simple, reproducible method for addressing mild to moderate bunion deformities.
Specifications:
  • The implant is made from superelastic Nitinol and features three legs for stable, six-point fixation.
  • A bowing bridge and converging proximal leg provide compression, while fixed distal legs prevent breaching the osteotomy.
  • Available in multiple configurations and sizes for medial or dorsal placement.
  • Pre-sterilized, fully disposable kits are designed to reduce operating room costs.
  • Includes pre-sterilized sizing guides and an innovative insertion tool for accurate placement.
Performance Comparison:
  • Pressure maps indicate superior compression distribution along the fusion interface compared to screw constructs.
  • Residual compression after repetitive loading is higher with the SPEED TRIAD system.
System Components:
  • Implant Kits: Various configurations such as centered, left offset, and right offset are available in sizes 18x15x8mm and 20x15x8mm.
  • Drill Kit: Includes a 2.0mm drill bit, drill guide, pull pins, and tamp.
  • Ancillary Tools: Includes a sizing guide and positive-stop drill guides for precise drilling.
Regulatory Information:
  • The system is FDA cleared and CE marked.
  • Certified by BSI to ISO 13485 under certificate number FM602278.
