ACTIVE STABILIZATION®

Product catalog summary
Overview
The Active Stabilization® System is a unique hybrid plating system designed to replace static compression with dynamic continuous compression, suitable for a range of foot and ankle procedures. It offers enhanced bending and rotational stability along with continuous compression.

Product Features
  • Two distinct plate options with a low-profile anatomic design.
  • Intraoperative repositioning capability and active gap recovery.
  • Three times more effective at maintaining compression compared to traditional plates and cross screws.
  • Sterile instrumentation provided with EcoSMART® Service.

Rotational Stability
The system provides higher rotational stability compared to traditional plate and cross screw systems, as evidenced by testing data showing superior torque resistance.

Gap Recovery
The system demonstrates full gap recovery, unlike plates without clips, ensuring better post-operative outcomes.

Instrumentation
  • Comes with sterile packed stainless steel instruments, including pre-loaded inserters and reamers available in sizes from 14mm to 24mm.
  • Reamers require .062”/1.6mm k-wires, which are not included in the kit.

Specifications
  • Non-locking and locking options available in sizes ranging from 8-30mm with 2mm increments.
  • Standard and short plate options with specific dimensions and angles for right and left configurations.

Instruments Included
  • Driver handle, plate bender, fixation pins, reamers, drill guides, and depth gauge probe.
  • EcoSMART® Instrument Recovery Service for cost savings.

Surgical Technique
  1. Metatarsal Preparation: Insert guidewire, ream, and remove cartilage to expose bone.
  2. Phalanx Preparation: Similar to metatarsal preparation, ensuring matching reamer sizes.
  3. Trial and Initial Fixation: Use temporary holding wires and x-ray for placement confirmation.
  4. Clip Preparation and Placement: Use instruments for DynaFORCE® clip implantation.
  5. Screw Placement: Begin with distal holes, using non-locking screws unless bone quality is poor.

SURGICAL TECHNIQUE STEP 01 Metatarsal Preparation Insert a 1.6mm/.062” guidewire in the central aspect of the metatarsal. Place the metatarsal reamer over the wire and begin to ream. Reamer should be spinning prior to touching bone. Remove all articular cartilage exposing bleeding bone. MPJ STANDARD Note: a small drill bit or k-wire may be used to fenestrate the surface after reaming. STEP 02 Phalanx Preparation Insert a 1.6mm/.062” guidewire in the central aspect of the phalanx. Place the phalangeal reamer over the wire and begin to ream. Reamer should be spinning prior to touching bone. Remove...

STEP 04 Clip Preparation Use provided instruments to prepare for implantation of the DynaFORCE® clip. STEP 05 Clip Placement Implant the DynaFORCE® clip through the plate. Rotate the knob counterclockwise until pressure is released, then rotate the inserter counterclockwise until the clip releases. Note: A tamp is available if needed. STEP 06 Screw Placement Drill and prepare for screws beginning with distal holes first. Non-Locking screws are recommended, unless bone quality is poor. If locking screws are used, ensure plate is firmly held to the bone on the opposite end prior to fully locking....
