Spinal Tech

Smith & Nephew unveiled its Evos Wrist Plating System at the American Society for Surgery of the Hand Annual Meeting in Las Vegas.

Four things to know:

1. Evos Wrist affords orthopedic surgeons a choice of approach, material and locking technology to perform simple and complex wrist fractures.

2. It offers stainless steel and titanium volar plate options, dorsal plates and forearm specific plates.

3. The volar plates use variable-angle locking technology to provide more freedom in screw placement and fixed-angle technology in longer plates for extra-articular fractures.

4. Titanium options for fragment-specific plates include distal ulna, intermediate column, radial column and dorsal buttress plates.
