Indications
The Pelvic C-Clamp II is intended for emergency stabilization
of sacrum fractures or disruptions of the sacroiliac joint with
associated circulatory instability.
Precautions:
Avoid use where:
– Fractures of the ilium are present, as there is risk of pin
perforation through the fracture line
– There are comminuted sacral fractures with the risk
of compression of the sacral nerve plexus
Note:
In life-threatening situations, hemorrhage control takes
priority over the potential risk of nerve root compression.
