olecranon locking plate

The olecranon locking plate represents a significant advancement in orthopedic surgical hardware, specifically designed to treat complex fractures of the olecranon process of the ulna. This innovative fixation device combines precision engineering with anatomical considerations to provide optimal stability and support during the healing process. The plate features strategically positioned locking holes that accommodate both locking and conventional screws, allowing surgeons to create a robust construct that effectively distributes forces across the fracture site. Its pre-contoured design closely matches the natural anatomy of the proximal ulna, minimizing the need for intraoperative bending and reducing surgical time. The plate's low-profile configuration helps prevent soft tissue irritation while maintaining structural integrity. Advanced metallurgical techniques ensure the plate offers superior strength-to-weight ratio, typically constructed from medical-grade titanium or stainless steel. The system includes various plate lengths and configurations to accommodate different fracture patterns and patient anatomies, making it a versatile solution for both simple and comminuted olecranon fractures.

New Products

The olecranon locking plate system offers numerous advantages that make it a preferred choice for both surgeons and patients. First, its anatomically contoured design significantly reduces operative time and improves the precision of fracture reduction. The locking mechanism creates a fixed-angle construct that enhances stability, particularly beneficial in osteoporotic bone where traditional screws might not provide adequate fixation. The system's versatility allows for multiple screw placement options, enabling surgeons to address various fracture patterns effectively. The low-profile design minimizes soft tissue irritation and reduces the likelihood of hardware-related complications, potentially eliminating the need for subsequent removal surgery. The plate's strength allows for early mobilization, which is crucial for maintaining joint function and preventing stiffness. Advanced coating technologies provide enhanced osseointegration and reduce the risk of infection. The comprehensive instrumentation set includes precision guides and tools that facilitate accurate plate positioning and screw placement. The system's compatibility with both locking and conventional screws offers flexibility in surgical technique, allowing surgeons to adapt their approach based on specific fracture characteristics and bone quality. The plates are available in different sizes to accommodate varying patient anatomies, ensuring optimal fit and function for each case.

Superior Biomechanical Stability

Superior Biomechanical Stability

The olecranon locking plate system achieves exceptional biomechanical stability through its innovative design features. The fixed-angle locking mechanism creates a unified construct between the plate and screws, effectively transforming point fixation into a three-dimensional supporting structure. This enhanced stability is particularly crucial in the olecranon region, which experiences significant tensile forces during elbow movement. The plate's design incorporates multiple points of fixation proximal and distal to the fracture site, ensuring optimal load distribution and reducing the risk of construct failure. The system's ability to maintain reduction during healing is superior to traditional tension band wiring, particularly in complex fracture patterns. Clinical studies have demonstrated reduced rates of hardware failure and improved maintenance of reduction compared to conventional fixation methods.
Anatomical Precision and Adaptability

Anatomical Precision and Adaptability

The anatomical design of the olecranon locking plate represents a breakthrough in precision engineering for orthopedic hardware. Each plate is meticulously contoured to match the complex three-dimensional anatomy of the proximal ulna, ensuring optimal fit and function. The system includes specific left and right variants to account for anatomical variations between sides. The plate's design incorporates variable angle locking technology, allowing surgeons to adjust screw trajectories within a 15-degree cone while maintaining the benefits of locked fixation. This adaptability is crucial when addressing different fracture patterns or accommodating individual anatomical variations. The plate's tapered profile follows the natural contours of the olecranon, minimizing soft tissue impingement while maintaining structural integrity.
Enhanced Recovery Protocol

Enhanced Recovery Protocol

The olecranon locking plate system facilitates an enhanced recovery protocol that significantly improves patient outcomes. The stability provided by the locking mechanism allows for early mobilization, which is essential for preventing joint stiffness and maintaining range of motion. The system's strength enables patients to begin controlled exercise programs within days of surgery, promoting better functional outcomes. The low-profile design minimizes soft tissue irritation during rehabilitation exercises, allowing patients to focus on recovery without hardware-related discomfort. The plate's superior fixation reduces the risk of secondary displacement, potentially eliminating the need for movement restrictions during the healing process. Clinical studies have shown that patients treated with this system demonstrate improved range of motion and faster return to daily activities compared to traditional fixation methods.
