The Variable Angle Locking Hand System offers instrumentation to aid in: • fracture reduction • provisional fi xation • plate adaptation • construct creation Designed for the Surgeon and Patient A dedicated, global surgeon team was integral to the design of this system through extensive consultation and participation in multiple design labs. Surgeon interviews, design and development meetings, and collaboration with key opinion leaders determined the clinical components necessary for the DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System. DePuy Synthes Companies are dedicated to improving patient care. System Snapshot • Extensive system of anatomically precontoured plates • First to the market with 1.3 mm locking screws for hand plating1 • Forceps that aid in fracture reduction and lag screw application • Forceps that aid in plate fi xation • Self-retaining screwdrivers • Plates available in 316L stainless steel and titanium • Color-coded instruments 1 DePuy Synthes Companies market analysis of leading orthopaedic companies, conducted May 2015. 1 DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique SYSTEM TECHNOLOGY Variable Angle Locking Technology Variable Angle Locking Plates 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm feature Variable Angle Locking coaxial holes. Four columns of threads in the Variable Angle Locking hole provide four points for threaded locking between the Plate and the Variable Angle Locking Screw to create a fixed-angle construct at the desired screw angle. • Variable Angle Locking plate 1.5 holes accept: – Variable Angle Locking screws B 1.5 mm – Cortex screws B 1.5 mm – Locking screws B 1.5 mm. These screws can only be used on-axis • Variable Angle Locking plate 2.0 holes accept: – Variable Angle Locking screws B 2.0 mm – Cortex screws B 2.0 mm – Locking screws B 2.0 mm. These screws can only be used on-axis • Variable Angle Locking screws can be angled anywhere within a 30° cone • Cortex screws B 1.5 mm and 2.0 mm can be used in the plate positioning slots, if present, for traditional compression and fixation Locking Technology • Locking plates 1.3 feature locking, coaxial holes. Fully threaded locking holes provide threaded locking between the plate and the locking screw to create a fixed-angle construct • Locking plate 1.3 holes accept: – Locking screws B 1.3 mm – Cortex screws B 1.3 mm Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique DePuy Synthes 3 Variable Angle Locking Hand System Overview SYSTEM FEATURES Features Benefits Extensive range of implant options Accommodates a variety of fractures and patient sizes Anatomically contoured plates Designed with contour to adapt to bony anatomy Plates designed for lateral and direct dorsal Accommodates plate placement to help avoid tendon application insertion points Low-profile, anatomically precontoured plates Designed to reduce soft tissue irritation Recessed screw heads Designed to sit flush with the plate surface Variable Angle Locking Technology Offers screw placement options in a variety of fragment patterns and around the joint Provides fixed angle stability for metaphyseal and osteopenic bone Elongated plate holes Facilitate plate positioning Modular, color-coded system Aids in clear identification of instruments for Operating Room staff and Central Processing Facilitates proper instrumentation usage by size Comprehensive instrumentation Aids surgeon in all aspects of procedure: plate adaption, provisional fixation, and bone preparation Implants offered in both stainless steel and titanium Allows options for surgeon preference and patient need T4 and T6 self-retaining screwdriver shafts Aid in screw handling, measuring, and delivery Hex coupling screwdriver handle Ergonomic connection mechanism in a handle design that disassembles for cleaning Reduction Forceps Aids reduction and lag screw application via forceps Plate Holding Forceps Holds plate intraoperatively 4 DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique AO PRINCIPLES AO PRINCIPLES In 1958, the AO formulated four basic principles, which have become the guidelines for internal fixation.1, 2 ITnh 1o9s5e 8p,r tinhcei pAleOs ,f oasrm auplpaltieedd tfoo utrh eb aVsaicr ipabrilnec Aipnlegsl,e w hich hLaovcek ibnegc Homaned t Shyes tgeumid,e alirnee:s for internal fixation1, 2. 4_Priciples_03.pdf 1 05.07.12 12:08 Anatomic reduction Stable fixation Anatomic reduction Stable fixation Fracture reduction and fixation to Fracture fixation providing absolute Fracture reduction and fixation to Fracture fixation providing abso- restore anatomical relationships. or relative stability, as required by restore anatomical relationships. lute or relative stability, as the patient, the injury, and the required by the patient, the injury, 1 2 personality of the fracture. and the personality of the fracture.

Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique DePuy Synthes 5 4 DePuy Synthes Expert Lateral Femoral Nail Surgical Technique INTENDED USE AND INDICATIONS Intended Use Variable Angle Locking Hand System Implants are intended for temporary fixation, correction or stabi- lization of bones in anatomical region of the hand. Indications The Variable Angle Locking Hand System is indicated for the treatment of fractures, deformities and degenerative diseases in the hand. Precaution: When using this system to treat skeletally immature patients, physiological status of the physes and individual stature of the patient should be assessed before considering treatment options as damage to the physes may occur, leading to potential growth arrest. 6 DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique FEATURED PLATES AND TECHNIQUE HIGHLIGHTS The plates contained in this section are featured im- plants of the DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System. Refer to the product information section for a complete list of all plate configurations offered as part of this system. Phalangeal Head Plate Available sizes: Designed with an anatomic contour and hole configuration Left Right to facilitate lateral fixation of fractures of the middle and 1.3 mm 02.130.157 02.130.156 proximal phalangeal head. 04.130.157 04.130.156 • Elongated hole for adjustment of plate position 1.5 mm 02.130.257 02.130.256 • Ulnar or radial plate placement 04.130.257 04.130.256 • Curved plate designed to follow the natural curve of the phalanx 02 = Stainless Steel • Screw configuration in the head is designed to span 04 = Titanium the attachment of the collateral ligament • Available in Right and Left orientations • Designed for periarticular fractures and articular fractures of the distal phalanx Left Right Surgical Approach Ulnar Radial Right Hand Right Plate Left Plate Left Hand Left Plate Right Plate Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique DePuy Synthes 7 Featured Plates and Technique Highlights When implanting this plate, the following screw order 1 placement is suggested. • Place a cortex screw in the elongated hole (1), leaving the screw slightly loose. Screw placement is at the midaxial line. Place plate prior to the K-wire so that the cortex screw can be positioned at the midaxial line • Provisionally fix the condyles. Place a K-wire in the center of the condyle, so the wire is located between the two distal holes (2). The K-wire should be placed in the center 2 of the axis of the joint. K-wire placement is relative to the fan-shaped, central collateral ligament. Note that the 3 footprint of the ligament is larger than the center of the axis. Make small adjustments to K-wire placement to avoid intra-articular placement of screws, while still creating a stable construct. Variations in K-wire placement are at surgeon’s discretion, considering periarticular tissue and fracture size. For Plates 1.3, use a K-wire B 0.6 mm. For plates 1.5, use a K-wire B 0.8 mm • Adjust the plate along the bone shaft, as necessary, so 4 that the K-wire abuts the plate. Tighten the cortex screw in the elongated hole • Place a screw in most distal hole (3) • Place screw in most volar hole (4) • Confirm placement and depth of screws under radiographic imaging • Place remaining screws in the head and plate shaft, depending on fracture pattern Refer to surgical technique section for general plate and screw application techniques where this suggested screw insertion order can be applied. 8 DePuy Synthes Variable Angle Locking Hand System Surgical Technique
