Product Overview
Delivering controlled, adjustable suture tension, the BIORAPTORâ—Š Knotless Suture Anchor provides an easy to use, potentially time-saving approach to labral repairs of the hip. The BIORAPTOR Knotless Suture Anchor allows surgeons to control anchor tension in labral repairs post anchor insertion. Unlike other instability anchors, our knotless anchors do not rely on a bone-anchor interface for proper final fixation or suture security. Designed with an inner plug, the tension-ability and security of our sutures lies within the interior of the anchor.
• Independent suture tensioning: Our knotless anchor design gives surgeons the ability to tension the suture after anchor implantation.
• Surgeon-controlled tissue shift: Calculated tissue shift occurs after anchor implantation, similar to that of traditional knotted anchors.
• May save time while protecting the joint: By eliminating the knot-tying step, surgeons may save time with less procedural steps (http://www.smith-nephew.com/)
