DeftFix – Apparatus for Precise Fracture Reduction & Deformity Correction
SHPOPL - takes pride to present revolutionary software assisted external fixation device DeftFix, which is developed in India, in association with leading Orthopaedic surgeons.
DeftFix, with its user friendly software, offers a world class product at very competitive prices.
DeftFix provides excellent stability, allows immediate weight bearing and it's user friendly software offers precise correction of complex deformities.
Q . What is DeftFix?
DeftFix is a software based deformity correction and fracture reduction platform, designed for the treat-ment of open and closed fractures, limb lengthening, deformity and angular correction, non-unions, malunions, arthrodesis and pseudo arthrosis of long bones. DeftFix is compatible for use with with Pitkar Ilizarov rings system. The system is easy to apply, offers good mechanical stability and precise correction in all planes, using a user friendly cloud based software
Q . How does the DeftFix work?
Parameters from the frame and x-rays are inserted into the specially designed DeftFix software. Using special tools the software automatically calculates deformity correction and visualizes the final position of the distal bone fragment (where it will be after deformity correction). Finally the patient receives a mathematically precise schedule regarding what changes of length must be made to each of the struts to achieve deformity correction.
The DeftFix can also be used for the reduction of any shaft fractures. It is first fixed to the bone & with the struts in their fast strut mode, the fracture is acutely reduced under direct vision or C-Arm control. On achieving the fracture reduction the struts are locked. If any additional adjustment required it may be gradually performed, utilizing the user friendly software to achieve the desired results.
Wide range of indications:
Deformities:
Diaphyseal and meta-diaphyseal deformities of any complicity
