Trax Surgical has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Linkt Compression Staple System, designed to enhance outcomes in fracture repair, joint fusion, and osteotomy procedures.
The nitinol-based staples offer improved compressive strength and ease of use, promoting a stable healing environment. Unlike older systems, Linkt allows surgeons to adjust staple position prior to implantation, improving accuracy and reducing procedural complexity.
Key features include:
- Adjustable inserter for precise staple leg control
- Curved bridge for even compression across fusion sites
- Toothed legs for secure fixation
- Multiple sizes for anatomical versatility
President Shane Shankle stated, “This approval allows us to better serve our customers and elevate the standard of care in extremity orthopedics.”
