VariAx Foot Locking Plate System Trauma and Deformity Correction Polyaxial Locking Technology Comprehensive Calcaneal Fracture Plates
Introduction The reconstruction and fixation of bones in the foot can now be accomplished by means of the patented SmartLock polyaxial locking mechanism. This powerful feature allows a surgeon to insert polyaxial locking or non-locking screws at variable angles with respect to the plate, so that they can be targeted to address the location and geometry of a given fracture or osteotomy. Each plate can be configured with a combination of locking and/or non-locking screws which satisfy the intraoperative requirements of a particular case, without constraint or reliance on any pre-existing plate designs.
Features and Benefits Complete Plating System Multiple indication based plate designs are included in the VariAx Foot Locking Plate System, which are engineered to address specific foot trauma and deformity indications.

Features and Benefits.7mm Locking.7mm Non- Locking.mm Locking.mm Non- Locking Full Range of.7mm and.mm Locking and Non-Locking Screws Offers intraoperative solutions to cover a broad range of clinical indications. Low Profile Plate Design and Reduced Screw Head Prominence Each plate is designed to minimize soft tissue irritation by having a low profile (mm.mm thickness). Furthermore, the screws are designed to have minimal head prominence when fully inserted in a plate, which further reduces the risk of irritation. Anodization Type II Increases the strength of all VariAx Foot Plates, and may reduce the incidence of tissue adherence. Patented SmartLock Polyaxial Locking Technology Each screw is made of titanium alloy (Grade V), which is slightly harder than the plates, which are made from commercially pure titanium (Grade II). When a locking screw is used, the thread in the head of the harder screw reshapes the softer titanium used in the plate, thus creating a secure formfitting geometry. This process results in a solid, locked connection between the head of the screw, and the plate. Unique One-Step Locking Achieved by simply inserting a locking screw within the polyaxial locking range of ±, without the need for further steps. - +
Features and Benefits Two Dedicated Calcaneal Plate Designs The VariAx Foot Locking Plate System offers two distinct calcaneal plate designs, each incorporating a different design philosophy. The mesh design provides surgeons with an extremely low profile plate (mm thick) that can be easily contoured, and has many screw placement options. The standard plate design provides surgeons with a strong plate that can easily be contoured to the superior surface of the calcaneus.
Features and Benefits Efficient T7 or T Screw Head Design All VariAx Foot Locking Plate System screws are designed with either a T7 head (for.7mm screws), or a T head (for.mm screws). This screw head design encourages efficient force transmission from the screwdriver blade to the screw, and reduces the risk of screw head stripping. oval compression hole lip Oval Compression Holes allow for Compression and Locking in One-Step Oval compression holes allow for the active compression of different bone segments along the long axis of the oval hole. As a screw is inserted and tightened into an oval compression hole, compression can be achieved, and if a locking screw is used, the screw can then be locked into the plate in a single step. lip oval compression hole
Features and Benefits Deluxe or Basic Configurations The VariAx Foot Locking Plate System comes in two configurations: a Deluxe configuration, and a Basic configuration. The Deluxe configuration contains every implant design, while the Basic configuration consists of a reduced selection of implants, and provides a cost effective solution for foot surgery. Modular Instrument Platform The modular instrumentation system is designed for seamless integration within the Stryker Foot Solutions Portfolio. Color Coding of Instruments The instruments are color coded to facilitate ease-of-use during surgery. The SmartLock Locking Technology is patented (US 6,,6; DE 7; EP 867) by Professor Dietmar Wolter, Hamburg, Germany.
