Orthopedic surgical instrumentation supplied by Cartiva, Inc. is indicated for use in the press-fit fixation of the implantable medical device products manufactured by Cartiva, Inc.

Orthopedic surgical instruments designed for osteochondral implants with press-fit fixation are devices intended to manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant for the positioning, alignment, defect creation, and placement of press-fit osteochondral implants that utilize no additional means of fixation (e.g., suture fixation, adhesives). This type of device includes instruments specific to the geometry of the implant.

Orthopedic surgical instruments designed for osteochondral implants with press-fit fixation are hand-held devices intended to manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant for the positioning, alignment, defect creation, and placement of press-fit osteochondral implants that utilize no additional means of fixation (e.g., suture fixation, adhesives). This type of device includes instruments specific to the geometry of the implant.

The ProxiFuse Hammer Toe Device is indicated for the fixation of osteotomies and reconstruction of the lesser toes following correction procedures for hammertoe, claw toe, and mallet toe. Patients should be protected weight-bearing or heel-bearing until fusion or healing has occurred.

The ProxiFuse Hammer Toe Device consists of three components: 1) the implant, 2) deployment instrumentation, and 3) bone awl. The implant is comprised of 2-0 suture, two Nitinol anchors with PEEK Inserts, and a PEEK Stabilizing Body. The device is delivered through a specifically designed instrument. The method of delivery allows for a shifting of the PEEK Body which limits the amount of traction required to place the middle phalanx over the device. The suture utilized in the device serves multiple functions: 1) shifting of the PEEK Body and 2) applying tension between the Nitinol anchors which in turn stabilizes the proximal interphalangeal joint (PIPJ).
