Introduction
Instrument Features
A major advantage of the T2
instrument platform is the integration
of core instruments that can be
used not only for the complete T2
Nailing System, but for future Stryker
Osteosynthesis nailing systems,
thereby, reducing complexity and
inventory.
The T2 instrument platform
offers
precision and usability, as well as
ergonomically styled targeting devices.
Except for the addition of a small
number of dedicated instruments, the
T2 Femur instrument platform is used
for the T2 Recon Nail.
The T2 Recon targeting device is
designed to provide two proximal locking
options: Recon or Antegrade Femoral
Modes.
Recon mode
: Provides two (2)
proximal holes targeting the femoral
neck and head:
• B Targets the Proximal Recon
6.5 mm Lag Screw
• A Targets the Distal Recon
6.5 mm Lag Screw
Antegrade Femoral Mode: Provides a
single 5mm Oblique Screw targeting
the lesser trochanter. LEFT is used for
a left nail and
RIGHT
for a right nail.
With the exception of the carbon
fi ber targeting device, dedicated
instruments for the recon mode are
color coded with “bronze”.
This makes it easy to differentiate
them from the core T2 instrument
platform.
Drills
Drills feature color coded rings:
4.2mm =
Green
(Consistent with the Gamma3 and
T2 Instrument Plat form, this drill
features a green color ring.)
The 4.2mm drills are used for 5.0mm
Fully Threaded Locking Screws (either
for distal locking or for proximal
oblique locking).
6.5mm
The Solid Stepdrill for the Lag Screw
is color coded with “bronze”.
