Area of Science:

  • Biomedical Engineering
  • Surgical Instrumentation
  • Medical Device Design

Background:

  • Surgical procedures often require specialized tools for precise manipulation of implants.
  • Existing implant driver systems may present challenges in terms of secure tethering and handling.
  • The development of improved systems is crucial for enhancing surgical efficiency and safety.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a novel implant driver and tether system.
  • To detail the components and assembly of the driver and tether.
  • To outline the method of attachment and use with a torque wrench.

Main Methods:

  • The system comprises a metal driver body with a handle and shaft, and a flexible tether.
  • The tether, made of materials like silicone, features a retaining aperture and finger-securing aperture.
  • Attachment involves slipping the driver's distal end flange through the tether's retaining aperture.

Main Results:

  • A functional implant driver and tether system has been designed and described.
  • The system allows for secure attachment of the tether to the driver body.
  • The driver handle is compatible with standard torque wrenches for controlled application.

Conclusions:

  • The described implant driver and tether system offers a new approach to surgical instrument management.
  • This system potentially improves the stability and control during implant procedures.
  • Further evaluation may be warranted to assess clinical efficacy and benefits.
