When an accident happens—whether it’s a sports injury, a tumble, or a serious fall—the goal is always the same: getting back on your feet and moving again as safely as possible. That’s where orthopedic trauma devices come into play.
What are Orthopedic Trauma Devices? In simple terms, these are the tools and implants surgeons use to fix broken bones and complex fractures. While a simple break might just need a cast, more "traumatic" injuries require internal support. These devices include things like:
Plates and Screws: To hold bone fragments together.
Rods (Intramedullary Nails): Inserted into the hollow center of long bones (like the thigh or shin) to act as an internal splint.
External Fixators: Frameworks that stay outside the skin to hold bones in place when the surrounding tissue is too damaged for immediate surgery.
