Orthopaedic implantation sleeve, single-use

84 devices · GMDN 58148

Orthopaedic implantation sleeves are single-use, sterile tubular tools used during surgery to secure orthopaedic implants—such as screws or spacers—while allowing surgical instruments to pass through. They help stabilize the implant-instrument connection and shield the surgeon’s gloved hand or patient tissue from direct contact, ensuring precision during placement.

These sleeves are typically classified as single-use medical devices and are regulated according to local medical device laws, which may include requirements for sterility, material safety, and surgical application. They are often supplied pre-sterilized, in various sizes and materials like stainless steel or synthetic polymers, to match specific surgical needs.
