The CoNextions TR Tendon Repair System consists of a single-use, sterile implant consistingof two identical stainless steel anchors implanted in either end of the injured tendon andconnected by two loops of UHMWPE fiber. The implant is provided pre-loaded into an ImplantMechanism and with a Deployment Mechanism to facilitate placement.
A sterile, hand-held, mechanical surgical instrument intended to be used to approximate the ends of a lacerated or ruptured tendon and to subsequently deploy a tendon coaptation implant in order to reattach the tendon ends. It is in the form of a stapler-like deployment gun with a proximal control used to deploy the distally-loaded implant. This is a single-use device.
