PEEK Suture Anchor System
Material characteristics
Excellent biocompatibility: PEEK materials have outstanding biocompatibility and biostability, without cell toxicity irritation, or allergic reactions, and can exist in the body for a long time without causing adverse reactions.
Outstanding mechanical properties: Its elastic modulus is similar to that ofical bone, which can effectively relieve stress shielding phenomenon, and it also has good mechanical strength and fatigue resistance, which can meet the needs of fixation in surgical sites.
imaging characteristics: PEEK materials have good transparency, are not visible on X-rays, and have no artifacts on MRI, which is convenient for postoperative imaging examinations to observe the situation.
Structural design
Full thread design: Some screws adopt full thread design, which can provide higher holding power for the screw body and firmly fix it in the bone tissue
Lateral hole design: Some screws are equipped with lateral holes, which can induce bone ingrowth, ensure long-term stability, and promote tendon-bone healing.
-placed suture: High-molecular-weight polyethylene suture is usually pre-placed, which has high strength and wear resistance, and some screws also pre- curved needles, which is convenient for operation and makes the suture process more simple.
Screw body with line hole: The screw body is equipped with a line hole to avoid suture being cut and extend the service life of the suture, ensuring the fixation effect.
Product type
According to whether there is a knot, it can be divided with knot screws and without knot screws; according to different implantation methods, it can be divided into self-tapping screws and insertion screws, etc. Different types of screws have own advantages in terms of ease of operation and fixation effect, and can meet the needs of different surgical scenarios.
Indications
It is suitable for the connection and fixation bone and soft tissue in various joints of the human body, such as rotator cuff repair, joint capsule repair, medial and lateral collateral ligament injury repair, acetab labrum injury repair, biceps tendon reconstruction, etc.
Clinical advantages
It has the advantages of small trauma, simple operation, good fixation effect, quick postoperative recovery, which can effectively reduce the operation time and the pain of patients, and improve the success rate of surgery and the quality of rehabilitation of patients
