Implant Titanium Rod Used For Orthopedic

Orthopedic titanium rods are implants commonly used in orthopedic surgery. Implant Titanium Rod Used For Orthopedic have good biocompatibility and mechanical properties. They are mainly used to fix and support bones, promote the healing of fractures or bone injuries, and correct bone deformities. In orthopedic surgery, medical titanium rods are also widely used in the manufacture of internal fixation devices such as bone plates and bone nails. These devices help bones restore their normal shape and function by fixing the fracture site. The light weight and high strength of titanium allow these devices to reduce the burden on patients while ensuring sufficient strength, which is conducive to postoperative recovery. In addition, titanium's corrosion resistance and good elasticity also ensure that the instruments maintain stable performance after multiple cleaning and disinfection, providing patients with a safer and more reliable treatment method.

Orthopedic metal materials mainly include three categories: titanium and titanium alloys, medical stainless steel, and cobalt-chromium alloys. Among them, stainless steel and cobalt-chromium alloys generally contain Ni, Cr, Co and other elements that have toxic side effects on the human body. The elastic modulus of stainless steel is about 210GPa, that of cobalt-based alloys is about 240GPa, and that of human bones is about 20-30GPa, which inevitably produces stress shielding. The elastic modulus of some titanium alloys is 20-100GPa, which is similar to that of bones.

Product specifications

Basic information

Material properties:

Good biocompatibility: Titanium is a metal that has a good affinity with human tissue. It rarely causes allergic or rejection reactions after implantation in the human body, so it is very suitable as an orthopedic implant material.

High strength: Titanium rods have high strength and rigidity, which can provide stable support for damaged bones and help maintain the structure and stability of bones.

Strong corrosion resistance: In the complex environment inside the human body, Implant Titanium Rod Used For Orthopedic can resist the erosion of various chemicals and are not prone to corrosion, ensuring the long-term stability of implants.

Light weight: Compared with other metal materials, titanium has a lower density, and the titanium rods made are light in weight, which reduces the foreign body sensation in the patient's body and puts less burden on the body.

Application scenarios

1. Fracture fixation: When a fracture occurs, the doctor will implant titanium rods on both sides of the fracture site, and connect the titanium rods to the bones through screws and other fixing devices to fix the fracture and help the bones heal properly. For example, titanium rods are often used to fix bones in surgeries such as limb fractures and rib fractures.

2. Spinal correction: For spinal diseases such as scoliosis and spondylolisthesis, titanium rods can be used in conjunction with other spinal fixation devices (such as screws, hooks, etc.) to help correct spinal deformities and restore the normal sequence and function of the spine.

3. Femoral head repair: In the treatment of diseases such as avascular necrosis of the femoral head, Implant Titanium Rod Used For Orthopedic can be implanted in the femoral head to support the femoral head, prevent the femoral head from collapsing, relieve pain symptoms, and delay the progression of the disease.
