PharmAlliance Orthopedic Implants series

The PharmAlliance Orthopedic Implants series offers a comprehensive selection of implants, primarily categorized by their material composition—Titanium (TT) and Stainless Steel (SS)—and their functional applications. These categories include a variety of surgical implants designed for different types of orthopedic surgeries, ensuring compatibility for diverse fracture types and anatomical needs. Below is an overview of each category:

1. Locking Plates

• Titanium (TT) Locking Plates: Options include variations A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Locking Plates: Similar structure with subtypes A, B, C, and D.
• Locking plates are typically used in bone fixation to maintain stability, especially in areas requiring angular stability, such as the shoulder or knee.

2. Non-Locking Plates

• Titanium (TT) Non-Locking Plates: Includes types A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Non-Locking Plates: Offers the same structure as the titanium plates.
• Non-locking plates allow some micromovement to support natural bone healing and are commonly used in more flexible areas of the skeleton.

3. Locking Screws

• Titanium (TT) Locking Screws: Available in types A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Locking Screws: Includes the same type range.
• These screws are crucial for attaching locking plates, providing enhanced stability.

4. Non-Locking Screws

• Titanium (TT) Non-Locking Screws: Subtypes A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Non-Locking Screws: Similar structure as titanium screws.
• Non-locking screws are often paired with non-locking plates and allow some flexibility.

5. Nails

• Titanium (TT) Nails: Includes variations A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Nails: Offers the same options.
• Nails are used in the intramedullary fixation of long bones, such as the femur or tibia, especially in cases of fractures.

6. Total Hip Replacement

• Titanium (TT) Total Hip Replacement: Subtypes A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Total Hip Replacement: Includes identical options.
• Designed to replace the hip joint, providing durability and biocompatibility to restore mobility.

7. Total Knee Replacement

• Titanium (TT) Total Knee Replacement: Types A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Total Knee Replacement: Parallel options.
• These implants replace the knee joint, promoting longevity and stability for active movement.

8. Wires

• Titanium (TT) Wires: Options A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Wires: Equivalent varieties.
• Orthopedic wires are commonly used for fracture fixation or in tension-band wiring techniques.

9. Washer

• Titanium (TT) Washer: Includes types A, B, C, and D.
• Stainless Steel (SS) Washer: Offers the same structure.
• Washers distribute the load and provide support to screws and plates, enhancing the fixation strength.

This structure allows surgeons to select implants tailored to patient-specific needs and anatomical locations. The choice between titanium and stainless steel depends on factors like biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and mechanical requirements.
