SuperCable® Iso-Elastic™ Polymer Sternotomy Closure System Elastically Absorbs Load & Maintains Compression Dual Strand Footprint Reduces Cut-Through Low Profile Clasp Minimizes Palpability Polymer Cable Allows for Quick Re-Entry Photo and radiograph courtesy of Bradford Hack, MD, West Coast Orthopedics, Arcadia, CA A clinically proven6,7 polymer cable system providing superior fatigue strength and dynamic compression across healing bone fragments Four SuperCables used for closure of median sternotomy Expect Innovation

A Better Way, For Better Outcomes The “Iso-Elastic” property of the polymer SuperCable provides “dynamic compression” across the sternal halves to better accommodate the physiologic loads acting on the healing sternum. This Iso-Elastic property also acts as a “shock absorber” on the sternum, helping to neutralize loads caused by coughing, sneezing and patient movement, thus reducing the chance of cut-through and loss of fixation. The broader footprint of the double-strand cable can also help to minimize cut-through into soft bone. The improved fixation offered by SuperCable provides the opportunity...
