PEEK Interference Screw
The PEEK Interference Screw is a medical implant used to fix soft tissue grafts to bone, especially during ligament reconstruction procedures like ACL or PCL surgery. It is made from PEEK (Polyetheretherketone), a high-strength, biocompatible polymer. This screw offers strong fixation while minimizing potential imaging interference due to its radiolucent nature.
Product History
Interference screws have been in use since the late 1980s for sports medicine and orthopedic surgeries. Initially made from metal, advancements led to the development of bioabsorbable and polymer-based materials. PEEK became popular due to its strength, biocompatibility, and non-reactive properties. Over the years, PEEK Interference Screws have gained widespread clinical acceptance in knee and shoulder ligament reconstructions.
Trusted Support for ACL and Soft Tissue Reconstruction
Advin Health Care offers PEEK Interference Screws that provide secure graft fixation with minimal risk of reaction or imaging distortion. These screws are made from high-performance PEEK material, ensuring long-term stability and biocompatibility. Advin Health Care designs them in various sizes to accommodate different graft types and surgical preferences. The threaded design ensures optimal compression between the graft and bone tunnel. This results in enhanced healing and faster patient recovery.
