Comprehensive fixation system for a wide variety of fractures.

°Õ³ó±ðÌý´Ü¾±³¾³¾±ð°ù®ÌýUniversal Locking System (ULS) includes straight and formed plates that will accommodate standard cortical and cancellous screws, along with locking screws that have threaded heads which enable them to be threaded into plate holes. The ULS plates resemble standard plates, but have figure-8 shaped holes which will accommodate standard or locking screws on either side of the hole. As a result, the plate can be used, depending upon the fracture situation, as a compression plate, a locked internal fixator or as an internal fixation system combining both techniques

Product Type

  • Plates and Screws

System Features

The system is designed to combine the principles of interfragmentary compression and bridging. The plates have figure-8 shaped holes that accommodate both standard screws and locking screws on either side of the hole. The locking screws have threaded heads that are threaded into the plate holes. The plate can be used as a compression plate, a locked internal fixator, or an internal fixation system combining both techniques.

Plate Features

TheÌýuniversal locking plates have a combination of locking and compression holes – creating a figure-8 shape plate hole. The ULS hole allows placement of standard cortical screws, cancellous screws or locking screws on either side of each hole providing 80 degrees of longitudinal screw angulation, 14 degrees of transverse screw angulation, uniform hole spacing along the length of the plate and load/compression and neutral screw positions.

Locking Screw Features

TheÌýscrew head is designed to create a nearly flush profile on the plateÌýdesignedÌýtoÌýminimizeÌýsoft tissue irritation. All screws are self-tapping to aid ease of insertion. Double-leadÌýscrew head thread is double the screw shaft threadÌýpunch. Screws will advance at same rate into the plate as into the bone.ÌýÌýÌý

MIS Insertion Technique

The Plate Insertion Guide will target the entire length of a 3.5mm plate 14 holes or less in length, and a 2.7mm plate 12 holes or less in length. Longer plates will require that the Plate Insertion Guide be repositioned or an additional incision be made to visualize and target the additional holes.ÌýPlates can be applied submuscularly, with or without a guide

Surgical Approach: The 911³Ô¹Ï Universal Locking System is a comprehensive system of straight and formed plates indicated for temporary internal fixation and stabilization of osteotomies and fractures. The 911³Ô¹Ï Universal Locking System designed to enable the surgeon to: 1) Treat fractures using compression plating techniques with standard cortical or cancellous screws; 2) Apply the implant as an internal fixator to bridge highly comminuted zones while providing stable fixation; 3) Utilize both standard and locking screws in the same construct; 4) Apply bi-directional axial compression within the construct; 5) Place the plate on the bone based on the fracture pattern or type, rather than on the plate design; 6) Apply the plate submuscularly, with or without a guide; 7) Utilize unicortical locking fixations necessary; 8) Utilize existing Periarticular Locking screws and instrumentation, and 911³Ô¹Ï Plates and Screws and instrumentation.
