Introduction to the use and advantages of kyphoplasty dilator

With the increasing aging problem, the physical health of the elderly has attracted more and more attention. After the age of fifty, as the calcium loss of bones accelerates, osteoporotic fractures are prone to occur, among which vertebral compression fractures are common, which will cause severe low back pain and paralysis after occurring. Medical therapy and surgical treatment may relieve pain but are not sufficient. Kyphoplasty dilators are commonly used in clinical practice.

Kyphoplasty dilator is mainly used to strengthen fractured vertebral body. It is composed of puncture assembly, drill and dilator assembly, injection assembly and auxiliary devices. There are eight main steps of use, first the puncture assembly is passed through the skin to reach the vertebral body, and then the needle is removed, leaving the needle tube. Then insert the guide wire of the drill and dilator assembly into the needle tube, take out the needle, leave the guide wire, then put the catheter on the guide wire, leave the catheter, insert the catheter into the drill hole of the vertebral body to expand the dilator, raise the vertebral body to form a cavity, take out the dilator and inject bone cement, use the tamper of the injection assembly to compact the bone cement and take out the catheter and tamper, and wait for the bone cement to harden to restore the vertebral body.

Advantages of the product include that it can prevent bone fragments in the vertebral body from accidentally falling into the spherical shell, and there is no need to inject contrast agent during the expansion process, and it can accurately determine the expansion volume in the vertebral body according to the pointer.

Nowadays, kyphoplasty dilators have been widely used in orthopedic clinics, which has a good effect on restoring the shape and strength of bones in vertebral compression fractures. Today, in the face of more and more osteoporotic fracture patients in the world, kyphoplasty dilators are constantly updated to improve the effect and avoid side effects and complications.
