Bone grafting has evolved significantly in recent years, with surgeons now having access to advanced technologies that enhance precision and efficiency. One of the most notable innovations in this field is the use of a graft delivery system, which allows for the precise placement of bone graft material into hard-to-reach areas. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, there are 38,600 surgeons working in the United States today, many of whom are incorporating these advanced systems to improve patient outcomes.
Precision with Graft Delivery Systems
Surgeons today rely on graft delivery systems like SurGenTec’s GraftGun® to accurately place bone graft material into specific areas. The GraftGun® offers tactile feedback, allowing surgeons to feel when the void is adequately filled, reducing the risk of over or under-filling. Additionally, the device features a radiopaque ring, which provides visualization of the graft placement, ensuring accuracy even in hard-to-reach spaces. This level of precision is critical in complex procedures where accurate placement can make a significant difference in patient recovery.
Efficiency with Preloaded Tubes
Another key advancement in bone grafting is the use of preloaded tubes, which are available with materials like OsteoFlo and ViMax. These preloaded tubes help reduce operating room time by minimizing the need for manual handling and preparation. This not only speeds up the procedure but also helps mitigate the risk of cross-contamination, ensuring a safer and more efficient process.
Adaptability for Tight Spaces
In many cases, surgeons need to place graft material in tight or difficult-to-access areas. The GraftGun® offers optional distal tip adapters that make it easier to fill these spaces accurately. This adaptability ensures that surgeons can confidently address complex cases with better outcomes for their patients.
Universal Compatibility
One of the key features of the GraftGun® is its universal compatibility with various bone graft materials. The device’s loading technology gives surgeons the flexibility to choose the bone graft that best suits their needs, providing a tailored approach to each surgery.
