CPS Baby Bioabsorbable Fixation System

Description

Inion´s bioabsorbable answer for cranio-maxillofacial surgery. The fixation system contains a selection of resorbable plates in different shapes and resorbable screws. The Inion CPS product family includes also CPS Baby product line. Inion CPS implants have been optimized in terms of handling properties, strength and degradation characteristics to support a more natural healing process. The Inion CPS implants are based on Inion biodegradable polymer blends which are composed of L-Lactide, D,L-Lactide, Polyglycolide and Trimethylene Carbonate (TMC). These polymers have a long history of safe clinical use.

Inion CPS Baby Bioabsorbable Fixation System is composed of:

– For paediatric patients’ use
– 1.5 mm system

BIOABSORBABLE PROFILE

• Mechanical strength retention: 70% of the initial strength 6 weeks after implantation
• Bioresorption time: 2-3 years

Benefits

• The most comprehensive biodegradable plating system available – the only one comparable to titanium in its scope of use
• Quick and easy to use
• Fast screw fixation with the Inion CPS™ self-drilling bone taps and the surgical Pro-Dex Pro-Driver
• Inion CPS™ Baby implants reduce risk of growth restriction in children
• No permanent implant left in the body reducing risk of implant migration and stress shielding
• Predictable degradation progressively loads the bone to aid bone regeneration
• Non-interference with postoperative imaging (X-ray, CT, MRI)
• Addresses patient concerns about implant permanence, palpability and temperature sensitivity
• Avoidance of removal surgery, reducing patient trauma and cost
• Unlike other biodegradables, the implants are suited for all CMF areas, both adult and paediatric patients, including:

1. paediatric craniofacial trauma and reconstruction
2. fractures and reconstructive procedures of the cranium
3. orthognathic surgery and trauma of the midface and maxilla
4. fractures and osteotomies of the mandible*
