Orthopaedic implant/instrument assembling devices are reusable tools used during surgery to help join or position components of orthopaedic implants or instruments. They assist surgeons in aligning or securing parts—such as hip or knee prosthesis segments—when sizing or fitting is determined intraoperatively, ensuring precision without direct implantation.
These devices are typically regulated as reusable medical tools, requiring sterilization before use. They are not part of the final implant or instrument but serve as temporary aids during assembly, often classified based on their role in surgical precision rather than their material or invasiveness.
