HEMIGARD ASRD (Adhesive Suture Retention Device) offloads up to 10 lbs or 40 N of stress from a standard 2-0 nylon suture to allow for high tension wound closure without skin tearing. The rigid, rip-proof suture eyelets withstand high tension and elevate suture off the skin. The middle section stretches under high tension to disperse stress away from the wound edge, and the tail section stretches under low tension to prevent shearing skin and blistering.

The Autograft Harvester is a two piece instrument used to recover autogenous bone. The harvester connects to power via an AO quick connect and can be disassembled with a knob that accepts a T15 Driver. It contains a scoop feature to remove the graft from the housing. Multiple sizes are available based on patient anatomy or desired harvest site, including the calcaneus, proximal or distal tibia, and iliac crest. A synthetic bioimplant is available to backfill the void created by the harvester.

ACTIGLASS™ Backfill Bioimplant combines the osteoconductive properties of tricalcium phosphate and hydroxyapatite with bioactive glass in a collagen matrix. Together, this biocompatible composition can resorb and be replaced by natural bone. This synthetic bioimplant is pre-sized for compatibility with the Autograft Harvester, allowing for improved intraoperative convenience and efficiency.
