Non-Sterile Bone Fixation Element

The commercial models that make up the Non-Sterile Bone Fixation Element family are defined as fixation devices, classified as an implantable, surgically invasive medical product for long-term use.

The Non-Sterile Bone Fixation Element is also considered as a partially threaded transcutaneous pin, referred to as an anchoring element for the external fixation system.
a, also known as smooth pin, threaded pin, Schanz pin, etc.

The mechanism of action of the pin in the bone is to: stabilize, restrict or control the movement of bone fragments, assist in reducing fractures, correct or control alignment, promote stability to the affected region, and provide a safe placement in relation to adjacent structures.

Typical clinical applications of pins are: fracture treatment, stabilization, lengthening and bone transport. It can be used on medium and long bones in the extremities of the human body.

The design and use of these medical bone fixation devices are based on an understanding of bone healing and the loads and forces to which the implant is subjected. During the insertion process, the pins are subjected to torsional forces and flexural loading by the strength of the assembly around them.
that of axes parallel to the pins.

The threaded part of the pin is implanted into the patient's bone, while the smooth part is fixed to the Exte Fixators
the (ancillary components).

The Pin was developed to withstand the most critical loads, which are bending and torsion. In this way, it assists in structural stability and also in the transmission or relief of mechanical loads on the affected bones.

The design of the pins was designed for application in the different structures of the medium and long bones of the human body's extremities. Its cylindrical thread diameters vary between Ø 4.0 and 4.5mm and conical threads vary between Ø 2.5-2.0, 3.0-2.5, 3.5-3.0, 4.0-3.3, 4.5-3.5, 5.0-4.0, 6.0-5.0 and 6.0-5.6mm.
