orthopedic surgical plates
Orthopedic surgical plates are medical devices designed to stabilize and support bone fractures and osteotomies. These plates are typically made from high-grade biocompatible materials such as stainless steel or titanium, ensuring durability and compatibility with the human body. The main functions of orthopedic plates include maintaining bone alignment, reducing the risk of bone displacement, and facilitating faster healing by distributing load and stress evenly across the fracture site. Technological features of these plates often involve a unique contour that fits various anatomies, pre-drilled holes for screw placement, and surface treatments that promote osseointegration. Their applications span across a wide range of orthopedic surgeries, from simple fracture repairs to complex reconstructive procedures.
