The Capture High-Torque Screw System consists of various sizes of cannulated screws. The screws are machined, metallic screws with a cannulation that are self-drilling and self-tapping. Each type is offered in a variety of diameters and lengths and is manufactured from stainless steel and titanium. The system is intended for fixation of fractures in long bones, fixation of small bones, arthrodesis of the foot, wrist and elbow, and small and long bone osteotomies. This particular system consists of 7.0mm screws. Instruments are provided to assist with the implants.
A small, non-sterile, threaded rod with a slotted head typically used for internal orthopaedic fracture fixation by being screwed into bone to hold plates or nails to bone or to provide direct interfragmentary stabilization of bone, or it may fasten soft tissue to bone; it is made of a material that cannot be chemically degraded or absorbed via natural body processes (includes implant grade metal such as surgical steel, titanium alloy, or carbon fibre). Screws available are: cortical, cancellous, malleolar, scaphoid, partially-threaded and fully-threaded, self-tapping, and cannulated. A "lag screw" can be any of these used to obtain compression. This device must be sterilized prior to use.
