The future of fracture fixation with novel side-specific nails featuring variable angle locking technology Smith+Nephew (LSE:SN, NYSE:SNN), the global medical technology company, today announces the launch of its new TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System for stable and unstable fractures of the tibia, including the shaft. It is the only system to now offer trauma surgeons the choice of side-specific (right and left) nails for anatomic screw trajectories, which help to optimize fragment fixation and minimize soft tissue irritation with headless and low-profile screw options.1, 2 The TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System aims to streamline operative procedures and provide efficiency through surgeon-centered design of components and instrumentation, including: Two-piece modular drop system to help when using ancillary instruments and aid visualization.12.5mm channel reamer for the tibia which is designed to preserve the integrity of the entry point and provide soft tissue protection.5.0mm Lag Screws that compress the fracture in one screw insertion step, creating a streamlined workflow.3 Smith+Nephew’s family of TRIGEN Nails have delivered proven performance and industry-leading design for more than two decades.*4-7 The new TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System is poised to be the next flagship product setting the standard of care and performance for intramedullary nails. "What takes the TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System to the next level is its ability to reach fractures we never imagined treating with an intramedullary implant before – but we’re there now,” said Joseph R. Hsu, MD, Orthopaedic Trauma Surgeon at Atrium Health in Charlotte, NC. “It’s not just a nail, it’s a platform that allows us to rethink how we approach complex injuries. Most importantly, it makes those treatments reproducible. What’s especially exciting is that the TRIGEN MAX system represents a truly patient-centered approach; from the design of the instruments to the implants themselves, it’s all about optimizing recovery and addressing each patient’s unique anatomy and potential complications." “The first case using the TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System was completed last week, representing a significant advancement in lower extremity trauma care,” said Mark McMahan, Vice President, Trauma & Extremities Marketing for Smith+Nephew. “By focusing on both implant innovation and instrumentation, we’re delivering a smarter, more adaptable solution for today’s orthopaedic challenges.”  The TRIGEN MAX Tibia Nailing System is currently available in the United States only.
