Radius compression plate 3.70 series

distallockingtitanium

This instruction refers to a set of 4.0ChLP locking plates intended for the treatment of fractures of distal radius. The plates discussed are a part of the ChLP locking plates system developed by ChM sp. z o.o. The presented range of implants is made of titanium, titanium alloys and cobalt alloy in accordance with ISO 5832 stan- dard. Compliance with the requirements of quality management systems and the requirements of Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices guarantee high quality of the offered implants. The system for distal radial fractures treatment consists of: • Instrument set, • Surgical technique. INDICATIONS The main purpose of surgical treatment of radial bone fractures with 4.0ChLP locking plates is its anatomical reconstruction, and faster recovery to public and profes- sional life. The stabilization with this method provides the possibility of: precise fracture reduction, stable angular immobilization of bone fragments while preserving the blood supply. Plates are intended for treatment of: • fractures in distal part of radial bone and fractures extending to radial bone shaft. • compound exta-articular and intra-articular fractures. • osteotomies. • possibility of using them in treatment of other small bones fractures. CONTRAINDICATIONS • infections, • physical maturation. PLATE SELECTION AND CONTOURING Wide size range of locking plates enables proper plate selection. Locking plate contouring is not recommended due to possiblity of threaded holes damaging. Bottom surface of the plate does not have to contact the bone if locking screws are used.
