Product Overview
The Acumed Clavicle Plating System provides surgeons with the ability to address acute fractures, malunions, and nonunions of the clavicle with 33 different clavicle-specific plating options. The Clavicle Plating System offers low and narrow-profile plate solutions that are precontoured to match the natural shape of the clavicle.
Features
• First to Market With Comprehensive Precontoured Plating Options
• 33 unique plates—including anterior, superior midshaft, and superior distal options—accommodate varying patient anatomy and fracture patterns.
• Acu-Sinch Repair System
• This coracoclavicular anchor penetrates only the superior cortex of the coracoid, preserving the inferior cortex and protecting the neurovascular structures below.
Plate Design
The clavicle plates include a limited-contact undersurface, tapered ends, and narrow/low profile options, and are made of high-grade titanium and titanium alloy.
Diverging and Converging Screws
Superior distal plates offer up to eight diverging screws for cases where bone stock is compromised. The screw configuration is designed to maximize bone purchase, pullout resistance, and to provide fracture fixation and stability for comminuted fractures. (https://www.acumed.net/)
