The intended use of the Ortho Solutions Trauma Implants for Osteosynthesis System is to draw two or more aligned bone fragments together to facilitate healing.

Ortho Solutions K-Wires. Steinman Pins. Guide Pins Fixation Pins. & Rush Pins are indicated for use in fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstruction, for skeletal traction in alignment of long bone fractured segments, and as guide pins & wires for insertion of other implants.

Ortho Solutions Cerclape Wire is indicated for use for bone fracture fixation, osteotomy, arthrodesis, correction of deformity, revision procedures where other treatments or devices have been unsuccessful, and bone reconstruction procedures.

Ortho Solutions Cannulated Bone Screws and Washers are indicated for use over a guide pin or wire for aligned bone fracture fixation and bone fragment fixation. Washers of matching size to the cannulated bone screw may be used in certain applications. Cannulated bone screw sizes (with optional washer) of 4.0mm, 4.5mm, 5.0mm, 6.5mm, and 8.0mm are to be used with large and long bones in the skeletal anatomy. Specific indications, which are dependent in part on the diameter of the screw include: Minimally invasive fracture/joint reconstructions; Additive osteosynthesis for complex joint fractures; Multiple-fragment joint fractures; Femoral neck and femoral head fractures; Femoral supracondylar fractures; Tibial plateau fractures; Fractures of the head of the humerus & tibia; Cooper fractures of the tibia; Fractures of radius, wrist, ankle, elbow, and shoulder; Ligament fixation of the proximal humerus; Fractures of the acetabulum and dorsal pelvic ring; Condylar. fractures; Ligament avulsion injuries; Malleolar and navicular fractures; Fractures of the calcaneus and talus; Arthrodesis of the ankle joint; and Avulsion fractures.
