Acutrak Headless Compression Screw
Acumed’s Acutrak Headless Compression Screw has revolutionized the way surgeons gain fixation. Our innovative design simplifies surgical procedures, reduces complications and improves patient outcomes.
Key Features
- Compression: The variable thread pitch and tapered profile work together to compress bone fragments into one rigid structure, promoting union. The screw’s fully-threaded length maintains compression until bone fragments unite.
- Variable pitch: The screw tip’s wider thread pitch penetrates bone faster than finer trailing threads, gradually compressing fragments as the screw is advanced.
- Straightforward procedure: With cannulation, self-tapping threads and unique means of compression, Acutrak eliminates the need to countersink a head, drill a glide hole or, in many cases, make large incisions.
Approved Indications
- Fractures, joint fusions and osteotomies throughout the upper and lower extremities.
- Scaphoid fractures.
- Subtalar fusions.
- Radial head fractures.
- IP fusions.
