What is the bone tamp?
Bone Tamp is a device used in orthopedic surgery to reduce fractures and control of bone grafts. This tool can be used inside the bone to increase depressive areas after fracture, which helps in the stabilization process. It can also be used to wrap the bone in place at the graft site, careful procedure designed to support full bone growth in the area. There is a wide range of models, including a series of solid and flexible bone tiles, balloon devices and versions with angular and textured heads. Patients with broken or compressed vertebrae may be endangered by spinal cord injury. The bone tamp is inserted into the vertebra and is used to push the bone into the site, allowing the surgeon to set him with bone cement to stabilize the fracture. With the balloon, the surgeon inserts a tube with an inflatable balloon, cautiously blows it to push the bone back to the bone and then release it and fill the resulting bone cavity with bone cement.
similar procedures may be necessary if they are on the surface of broken or damaged bones around the joints of the body in the body of depression. This may increase the risk of arthritis later, in addition to the patient painful. The surgeon uses bone damp to restore the shape of the bone and reduces the fracture, so it can be burned to heal. Flexible devices provide more space for tunneling and work inside the bone and specialized heads can be used for different applications.
bone grafts may also require the use of tamp. When the surgeon places the graft material, it can be gently wavy within the procedure. This ensures that the graft is correctly placed and rooted, which increases the chance that it will take, eventually grows into the matrix of existing bones. Bone Tampie is an ideal tool for this purpose and can have a special head to stabilize the graft while the surgeon places it.
TEMPS can also be used in harvesting places where the surgeon wants to carefully removeDonor bone sample. Careful extraction is decisive for minimizing damage in cases where patients donate their own tissue and bone trails can be used to control the site and its preparation for healing. In the case of a corpse donation, tissue protection is less critical because the donor is unlikely to need it.
