The Ascension MCP is indicated for use as a total joint replacement of index, long, ring, and small finger metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joints that exhibit symptoms of pain, limited motion, or inadequate bony alignment secondary to articular destruction or degenerative disease related to rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, osteoarthritis, or post-traumatic arthritis where soft tissue reconstruction can provide adequate stabilization. The set includes proximal trials, distal trials, and silicone trials to evaluate the size and fit of the appropriate implant. Instruments are included to assist with the trials.
A collection of mostly instruments intended to be used to manipulate and prepare soft-tissue and bone for the adjustment or placement of the implantable components of an external orthopaedic fixation system in various skeletal areas (e.g., bones of limbs, spine, pelvis, craniomaxillofacial areas). It is a non-dedicated device that includes various metallic and/or plastic reusable devices (e.g., retractors, rods, clamps, drills, pins, cutters, screwdrivers, guides, tighteners) that are specific to the fixation system applied; the implant(s) is not included. This is a reusable device.
