Intraoperative bone pins or screws are temporary fixation tools used during orthopedic surgery to securely attach retractors or alignment guides to bone. They help stabilize surgical sites while implants or repairs are performed, ensuring precision and reducing movement during the procedure.
These devices are typically single-use and must be sterilized before use, as they are not intended to remain in the patient’s body post-surgery. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified based on their risk level and intended use, with compliance requirements ensuring safety and efficacy in surgical settings.
