Sternal closure bone cerclage wiring STERN FIX

monofilament polymer

STERN FIX represents a groundbreaking innovation in sternal closure systems by utilizing carbon fiber reinforced PEEK (CFR-PEEK), a biocompatible material that offers superior strength and flexibility compared to traditional metal-based systems. Its atraumatic design reduces bone stress and ensures multi-axis stability, making it ideal for high-risk patients, including those with osteoporosis and COPD. The system provides rigid fixation while avoiding complications associated with wires, such as bone cut-through or instability, and promotes faster recovery times with improved patient outcomes. STERN FIX is not only easier to apply but also ensures the safety and stability of the sternum after surgery, offering a safer and more effective solution to traditional methods. Why STERN FIX should win the i-NOVO Awards??? STERN FIX addresses critical gaps in post-surgical sternal stability with its innovative use of materials and unique design, significantly reducing post-operative complications such as deep sternal wound infections (DSWI). It represents the next generation of sternal closure technology, combining cutting-edge composite materials with user-friendly application, transforming both the surgeon's experience and the patient's recovery process. This marks a new era in sternal closure.
