HBS 2

After more than 100,000 successful HBS procedures worldwide, the time had come to evaluate the experiences gained and to utilize them for a new generation of headless bone screws. A great challenge in designing the HBS 2 implants consisted in retaining the proven implant geometry while enhancing the options for individual fracture treatment.

Another objective was to simplify the handling of the HBS 2 system for all parties involved – the surgeon, the assisting OR personnel and the CSSD (Central Sterilization Service Department) staff – utilizing all the technologies that are now available. By reducing the surgical steps and enhancing the ergonomics of the HBS 2 system, immediate benefits are created for patients as well as providing for substantial economic advantages.

Our HBS 2 screws are available in the dimension midi and mini and can be selected with different thread lengths. In addition, all screws are available both sterile and non-sterile. This allows us to safely and efficiently treat a wide variety of fractures, even very small fragments.

All screws are self-drilling and self-tapping, which contributes to a shortened and simplified surgical technique. Due to the reverse-cutting thread, the screw also allows for easy explantation.

 

Another feature of the compression screw is that it has two different thread pitches. This has the advantage that even a larger fracture gap can be reliably closed and compression generated.

 

We have made it our objective to design instruments that are easy and efficient to handle. The colour coding according to the respective screw diameter enables a clear and unambiguous assignment of the instruments.

Our stainless steel storage systems in honeycomb design are optimized for reprocessing and allow high stability with low weight. For easy and efficient instrumentation, the instruments are arranged in the storage according to the operating procedure.

 

Area of application

HBS 2 screws are intended for the management of intraarticular and extraarticular fractures and nonunions of small bones and fractures involving very small bone fragments, as well as for the fixation of small-joint arthrodesis, especially in the context of

  • Scaphoid fracture and scaphoid nonunion
  • Proximal radial head fracture
  • Proximal pole fracture of the scaphoid
  • Metacarpal fractures
  • DIP arthrodesis
  • Metatarsal fractures
  • Fracture of the styloid ulnae
  • Fracture of the styloid radii
