Zimmer Biomet CMF and Thoracic products
Cardiovascular - Pacing Wires and Surgical Punches
Ventricular Cardiac Pacing Wires
Designed for stable fixation and atraumatic removal. Insulated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and incorporating a 64mm and 89mm Keith needle which has a ‘snap off’ feature enabling the needle to be easily broken off without the need of wire cutters.
Pectus Excavatum Repair
Pectus Blu - Minimally Invasive Excavatum Repair
Next generation minimally invasive pectus system, with pre-bent bars, new stabilizer design and intuitive instrumentation. Zimmer Biomet has over two decades of clinical data and design expertise in the minimally invasive repair of Pectus Excavatum. Pectus Blu3 is the next-generation Pectus repair system, featuring pre-bent bars, a new stabilizer design, plus intuitive instrumentation. This all adds up to a system that is designed to improve procedural efficiency* and help surgeons deliver optimal results in deformity correction for both pediatric and adult patients.
Rib Fixation
RibFix Blu - Thoracic Fixation System
A simple, yet comprehensive, system designed for stabilization and rigid fixation. The RibFix Blu Fixation System is designed to offer surgeons simplicity and ease of use when approaching rib fracture repair. RibFix Blu plates are engineered to match the natural shape of the ribs, offering stability for direct bone healing while considering the natural movement of the chest wall. Pre-contoured and narrow plate design. Cancellous self-drilling screw design. Innovative in-situ plate to bone approximation tools.
RibFix Advantage - Intrathoracic Fixation System
The RibFix Advantage Intrathoracic Fixation System is the first and only intrathoracic fixation system for the treatment of rib fractures, which offers a repair that accommodates: Smaller Incisions as compared to a traditional open rib procedure. Minimal disruption to the periosteum helping to preserve the blood supply to the bone. Minimal disruption to the intercostal muscles for increased stability. This minimally invasive fixation system consists of pre-assembled bridge plates with locking posts and locking caps for thoracoscopically assisted fixation and stabilization of ribs. The pre-contoured bridge plate does not require intraoperative bending and the scalloped edges allow for additional points of stability to the bone.
Rigid Fixation
Thorecon - Rigid Fixation System
The Thorecon Rigid Fixation System is designed with a focus on simplicity and ease of use. This single use system incorporates the proven performance of plates and screws with the banding effect of an amorphous cable. The cable is designed to be passed with minimal trauma and without the need of additional instrumentation. Once tensioned, the cable expands in width, creating greater surface area on the bone and reducing the risk of pull-through.
