Inion FreedomPlate™ Fracture Fixation System

Clinical benefits

• Bone healing: maintenance of accurate alignment of
  • bone fractures
  • osteotomies
  • arthrodesis
  • bone grafts with appropriate additional immobilization

• Avoidance of removal surgery, reducing patient trauma and cost
• No permanent implant left in the body reducing risk of implant migration and stress shielding

Additional benefits

• Enhanced biomechanics of the Inion FreedomPlate™-Inion FreedomScrew™ construct compared with a conventional fixation plate
  • The tubular plate and polyaxial screw fixation enable a stable three-dimensional construct compared with a conventional fixation plate
  • The Inion FreedomScrews™ interlock with the Inion FreedomPlate™. The heat expands the screw shaft and engages the screw to the plate when cut with a low temperature hot loop
• Anatomic low-profile plate-screw construct
  • The Inion FreedomPlate™ can be cut and contoured to any desired shape after water bath treatment during the operation, which allows also low inventory quantities
• Variable screw angulations
• Resorbs in 2–4 years
• Predictable degradation progressively loads the bone to aid bone regeneration. The Inion Freedom™ implants maintain adequate strength during the healing period of fracture, osteotomy or other indicated procedure
• No long-term implant palpation, visibility, temperature sensitivity
• No imaging interference: no artifact is created on X-ray, computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) by the material
• No release or accumulation of metal debris, nor metal-induced allergies/sensitization
• Sterile-packaged implants reduce the risk of cross-contamination and overall infection risk
• Easier revision procedures: if re-operation is needed, the previously inserted Inion Freedom™ implants have either absorbed or can simply be drilled through
• MR Safe: the Inion Freedom™ implants are entirely made of non-conductive and non-ferrous material components
