The new orthopaedic power tools are fracture fixation and correction devices that will allow orthopaedic surgeons to quickly and easily repair bones with difficult geometries.

The equipment provide flexibility for ease of insertion, enabling effective placement and minimising trauma to surrounding structures and soft tissue, and rigid support for fracture healing. This will result in faster healing time, improved patient recovery, and greater patient satisfaction.
