BIOABSORBABLE ANCHOR BIOABSORBABLE SUTURE ANCHOR

BIOABSORBABLE SUTURE ANCHOR BIOABSORBABLE SUTURE ANCHOR It is specially designed for rotator cuff repair and biceps tenodesis. COMPOSITION Bioabsorbable biocomposite polymer: 70% PLA (Polylactic Acid) 30% of -TCP (tricalcium phosphate). -TCP particles are sub-micron sized and homogenously distributed within the PLA matrix, in addition, they are agglomerates free for a better bone integration. TCP keeps a neutral PH by buffer effect, the resorption speed is thus increased without risk of ARTHROFIX is a bioabsorbable suture anchor mounted on a single-use screwdriver assembled with two sutures composed...

BIOABSORBABLE SUTURE ANCHOR PROPERTIES Its double thread allows an increase of the pull out strength of the anchor. High mechanical properties improved by the homogeneous distribution of the TCP particles within the PLA matrix. The USP2 sutures are made of UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight Poly Ethylene) Each suture is maintened in a dedicated handle which prevents them from becoming tangled. Biocompatible Controlled resorption speed thanks to PLA material which degrades through hydrolysis and TCP particules which increase resorption speed. PROPERTIES - High tensile strength - Suture material...
