The Newdeal sterile Compression Plate consists of a plate, available in different sizes, and is implanted using Newdeal locking system fixation screws and washers. This system includes as many fixation screws and washers as threaded lipped sockets on the plate. The osteosynthesis screws are fixed to the bone through the plate holes, creating a single implant/screw unit. The system is locked by means of washers drilled into the threaded lipped sockets at the top of each hole, thus blocking each screw head.
A sterile implantable sheet of firm material intended to be attached to fractured long bone fragments with screws to bridge and stabilize the fracture gap, and shield the site from stress as the bone heals; the material is not chemically degraded or absorbed by natural body processes (includes implant grade metal such as surgical steel, titanium alloy, or carbon fibre). The device is typically used to treat traumatic or pathological orthopaedic fractures; it may also be used to temporarily augment bone following a lengthening procedure, or for arthrodesis (joint fusion).
