The Ring Fixator design allows freedom of pin placement, ease of assembly and stable fixation of bone fragments with the possibility of axial loading of the extremity and immediate range of motion of all adjacent joints. Bone anchorage elements include pins and wires. Bridge elements include rings or arches and extensions. Connection elements include struts, nuts and bolts, wire fixation bolts and pin clamps. The R&R Unilateral Mini Fixator is a stable solution for fractures and for lengthening of small bones. The system allows precise, controlled compression / distraction and early weight bearing, The articulating pin clamps allow adjustment around three axes and linear translation so that it can be used for comminuted intra-articular fractures, joint stiffness, or arthrodesis of the foot or hand. The fixator design enables pins to be located in multi-planar arrangements, allowing the frame to be built around the fractures in the hand or foot. ## Intended Use The R&R Ring Fixator and its components are indicated for open and closed fracture fixation, pseudoarthrosis or nonunions of long bones, limb lengthening by epiphyseal distraction, correction or bony or soft tissue deformities, and correction of segmental or nonsegmental bony or soft tissue defects. The R&R Ring Fixator is for use on all long bones including: tibia, fibula, femur, humerus, radius and ulna. The R&R Unilateral Fixator is indicated for stabilizing various fractures including open and/or comminuted fractures, infected non-unions, fractures with length discrepancies, fusions and corrective osteotomies of the metacarpal, metatarsal, ulnar, and calcaneal bones. {1}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
