Dynamic Fixator Elbow
+ Description
The Dynamic Elbow Fixator is a specialized external fixator designed to stabilize the elbow joint following trauma, dislocation, or reconstructive procedures—while preserving motion. It allows controlled hinge movement, maintaining joint alignment and soft tissue tension, which is essential for functional recovery.
+ Indications
- Complex Elbow Fracture-Dislocations – Provides stabilization with mobility in elbow fracture-dislocations, especially the “terrible triad” of the elbow.
- Post-Traumatic Elbow Instability – Maintains joint alignment and allows healing of collateral ligaments while preventing elbow stiffness.
- Ligament Reconstruction Support – Used to protect soft tissue repairs following elbow ligament reconstruction or repair of elbow capsule.
- Open Injuries & Infection Management – Useful in open fractures or infected joint injuries, where internal fixation is contraindicated.
- Elbow Arthrolysis & Contracture Release – Provides controlled motion after surgical release of elbow stiffness or ankylosis, aiding rehabilitation.
- Pediatric Applications (Cautious Use) – Can be adapted for pediatric elbow injuries, with careful size selection and close monitoring.
+ Key Features
- Dynamic Hinge Mechanism – Allows for controlled flexion and extension of the elbow joint, promoting early mobilization and preventing joint stiffness.
- Anatomically Contoured Design – Designed to match the natural axis of elbow rotation, ensuring accurate joint kinematics during movement.
- Adjustable Range of Motion Stops – Built-in extension and flexion limiters allow the surgeon to customize the range of motion as per healing stage.
- Secure Locking Joints – Provides rigid fixation when needed and can be unlocked to allow motion, ideal for staged rehabilitation.
- High-Quality Materials – Manufactured from medical-grade stainless steel (316L) or titanium, offering durability, strength, and biocompatibility.
- Radiolucent Components (Optional) – Optional radiolucent body or hinges allow clear postoperative imaging and progress monitoring.
- Reusable & Autoclavable – Designed for multiple sterilization cycles, maintaining mechanical precision over time.
- ISO & CE Certified – Manufactured under strict orthopedic regulatory standards, ensuring quality, safety, and clinical reliability.
