Inion CPS™ - Bioabsorbable Fixation System

Product catalog summary
Introduction to Inion CPS™ Implants
Inion CPS™ implants are bioabsorbable devices used in craniomaxillofacial (CMF) surgery, made from a blend of polymers with a history of safe clinical use. They support natural healing by providing initial stability and gradually transferring load to the bone as they degrade.

Material and Degradation Characteristics
The implants degrade in vivo by hydrolysis, metabolizing into CO2 and water. They maintain at least 70% of initial strength for a specified period (6 weeks for pediatric implants and 9 weeks for others), with complete bioresorption within two to four years.

Advantages of Inion CPS™ Implants
  • Bioabsorbable, eliminating the need for permanent metal implants.
  • Reduced risk of growth restriction in children.
  • Predictable degradation aids bone regeneration.
  • No interference with postoperative imaging.
  • Supplied sterile and single-packed to prevent cross-infection.
  • Easy anatomical contouring after heating in the Inion Thermo™ water bath.

System Components and Applications
The system includes plates, screws, and meshes for various CMF applications, suitable for both pediatric and adult patients, and is the only bioabsorbable system for all facial skeleton areas.

Clinical Use and Evidence
Used in over 120,000 operations since 2001, Inion CPS™ implants offer a comprehensive alternative to titanium systems, reducing the need for removal surgeries and associated trauma and costs.

Innovative Design Features
  • Scalloped plate design for optimized strength.
  • Malleable plates after heating for precise adaptation.
  • Versatile screw insertion methods, including manual tap and self-drilling options.
  • Universal screwdriver blade for all screw sizes.

Product Range
The document details various systems (1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.5 mm) with specific plates and screws for different surgical needs, including pediatric craniofacial procedures and mandibular fixation.

Instruments and Accessories
A range of instruments is available for use with the systems, including drill bits, bone taps, and countersinks, along with universal instruments like screwdriver blades and plate bending pliers.

Research and References
The document cites numerous studies and clinical trials supporting the efficacy and safety of Inion CPS™ implants in various surgical applications.

Inion CPS™ - Bioabsorbable Fixation System-2

Material advantage What are the Inion® bioabsorbable implants made from? The degradation profile Inion® bioabsorbable polymers are amorphous, degrade All Inion CPS™ implants are based on Inion® in vivo by hydrolysis and are metabolised by the body bioabsorbable polymer blends and have excellent into CO2 and water. The degradation profiles have been handling properties, and strength and degradation tailored to provide initial stability and then progressively characteristics that support a more natural healing transfer the load to bone to aid bone regeneration. Mass loss occurs thereafter. The...

Inion CPS™ - Bioabsorbable Fixation System-4

Innovative plate design Scalloped plate design Optimised strength / material ratio Minimised screw hole deformation during bending Handling advantage Low plate / screw profile for reduced palpability Plates are malleable after activation in the Inion Thermo™ water bath (55°C). After water bath treatment, plates are most malleable for 10-15 seconds for easy adaptation to the bone. They can also be re-heated up to three times for further contouring. Maximum heating time is 30 minutes.
