Additional Information for Orthopedic Tendon Implant Spacer
Orthopedic tendon implant spacers are medical devices used in orthopedic surgery to repair and replace damaged tendons. They are specifically designed to provide support and stability to the affected area while promoting healing and tissue regeneration.
These spacers are typically made of biocompatible materials such as titanium or polyethylene. They come in various shapes and sizes to accommodate different anatomical structures and surgical requirements.
Orthopedic tendon implant spacers are used in procedures such as tendon reconstruction, tendon transfers, and tendon repairs. They are inserted into the damaged tendon site to fill the void left by the injured or removed tissue. The spacer acts as a scaffold, facilitating the growth of new tissue and promoting the integration of the implant with the surrounding tendon.
These devices are part of the supply class "Medical And Surgical Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies" in the supply group "Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies." This classification helps healthcare professionals and suppliers identify and categorize the specific medical devices and supplies needed for orthopedic procedures.
It's important to note that the use of orthopedic tendon implant spacers should be performed by trained medical professionals in a sterile surgical environment.
