The Inion CPS 1.5/2.0/2.5 Bioabsorbable Fixation System is a bioabsorbable fixation device classified as a Fastener, Plate, Cranioplasty. It consists of degradable fixation plates, meshes, and screws designed for cranial and midface reconstruction, providing mechanical stability during bone healing. The system utilises co-polymers of L-lactic acid, D-lactic acid, and trimethylene carbonate, which degrade via hydrolysis into metabolisable alpha-hydroxy acids.

This system is intended for single-use in trauma or reconstructive procedures within the craniofacial and midface regions. Supplied sterile, the components are bioabsorbable with mechanical strength retention of 70% after nine weeks and a bioresorption timeframe of two to four years. The device is authorised under FDA 510(k) clearance (K251472) and falls under Class II regulatory classification (21 CFR 882.5360). Storage and handling follow standard sterile medical device protocols.

Frequently asked questions

What types of surgical procedures is the Inion CPS Bioabsorbable Fixation System designed for?

The Inion CPS 1.5/2.0/2.5 Bioabsorbable Fixation System is specifically designed for cranial and midface reconstruction in trauma or reconstructive procedures. Its bioabsorbable plates, meshes, and screws provide mechanical stability during bone healing in these regions, ensuring secure fixation while the bone regenerates.

How long does it take for the fixation components to degrade after implantation?

The system’s bioabsorbable materials degrade over a timeframe of two to four years through hydrolysis. During this period, the device retains 70% of its mechanical strength after nine weeks, ensuring stability during the critical early stages of bone healing.

Is the Inion CPS system intended for reuse, or is it meant to be used only once?

The Inion CPS Bioabsorbable Fixation System is explicitly designed for single-use only. This aligns with standard sterile medical device protocols to prevent contamination and ensure patient safety during surgical procedures.

What materials are used in the Inion CPS Bioabsorbable Fixation System, and how do they break down?

The system uses co-polymers of L-lactic acid, D-lactic acid, and trimethylene carbonate, which degrade via hydrolysis into metabolizable alpha-hydroxy acids. This gradual breakdown ensures the device maintains structural integrity during bone healing before fully dissolving.

How should the Inion CPS system be stored, and what precautions should be taken?

The system is supplied sterile, so storage must follow standard sterile medical device protocols to preserve integrity. This includes maintaining dry conditions, protecting from physical damage, and adhering to manufacturer guidelines to prevent contamination before use.
