Internal orthopaedic fixation systems with cerclage wires or cables are used to stabilize and reinforce bones during surgical repairs, such as fracture fixation, bone grafting, or spinal procedures. These devices wrap around bone fragments to hold them in place, providing temporary or permanent support while the healing process occurs.
These systems are typically regulated as surgical implants and require sterilization before use, though the non-sterile category here refers to the packaging state. They are often supplied as part of a kit, including tools like crimping devices or tensioners, and are designed for one-time surgical use in controlled clinical settings.
