In 15-20% cases the bone ends of fractured bone do not unite and non union/ delayed union occurs.
It is equally common in all types of cases. Whether it is closed reduction, open reduction with screw plates or nailing. There are variety of causes such as clot formation, interposition of soft tissue between ends of bone.
brings you HA powder to be injected between and around ends of broken bones.
in all cases of open or closed reduction. This will improve the environment around the fracture and increase chances of healing by providing an environment of Calcium & Phosphate ions the building blocks of bone. It will increase activity of Osteoclasts and osteoblasts in the vicinity of fractured bone ends.
Closed injection of HA powder can be repeated after 7-20 days depending upon X-ray visualisation of bone healing activity / callus. If callus is not visible after three weeks. Repeat injection of HA Powder is recommended.
The quality of HA powder is that it will not diffuse around and will remain coalesced as injected for prolonged period.
You may expect a significant reduction in non union cases.
Put the powder on plastic petri dish
Add sterile distilled water & mix with spatula
Make paste to a flowable consistancy
Load the paste into the syring from open wide end of barrel
Inject under C-arm visualization between and around ends of Precision. Depending upon the fracture you may have to use 10-50 gms of powder.
