A Suture Button is a fixation device used with suture-based systems for securing soft tissue or supporting ligament and tendon fixation in selected orthopaedic procedures. A typical system can include a metal plate or button combined with a suture or adjustable loop, allowing the components to work together during fixation.
For orthopaedic implant distributors, medical device companies, and OEM customers, selecting a Suture Button involves considering the plate dimensions, loop configuration, fixation requirements, surgical application, and compatibility between the individual components.
A Suture Button generally consists of a small fixation plate or button through which a suture or loop is connected. During a fixation procedure, the button can provide a surface for distributing the fixation load while the connected suture or loop is used as part of the soft-tissue or ligament fixation construct.
The design of a Suture Button can vary according to the intended application. Factors such as button dimensions, material, hole configuration, suture type, and loop length can all affect the overall design of the fixation system.
For this reason, the appropriate configuration should be selected according to the intended surgical application and the specifications of the complete fixation system.
The Well Trust Suture Button product range includes titanium plate configurations in several shapes and dimensions. Titanium is commonly used in orthopaedic implant applications, and a titanium plate provides a metal fixation component within the suture-based system.
The available Well Trust titanium plate models include TR060, TR070, TR080, TR090, TR100, TR110, and TR120. The corresponding product dimensions include configurations such as 12 × 6 mm, 10 × 8 mm, 20 × 5.5 mm, 20 × 5 mm, 11 × 4 mm, 14 × 7 mm, and 20 × 9 mm.
These different dimensions allow customers to consider the appropriate Suture Button configuration according to the requirements of the fixation system and intended application.
In addition to titanium plate options, the Well Trust system includes an adjustable coil identified as TR202. The product description specifies this component as a white adjustable coil.
The adjustable design allows the coil size to be adjusted according to the required configuration. The product information also describes the coil as being designed for matching with different titanium plates.
For a Suture Button system, the relationship between the plate and adjustable coil is an important consideration. Customers should confirm the corresponding components, dimensions, and intended configuration before ordering or integrating the product into an existing fixation system.
Suture Button systems can be used in selected orthopaedic fixation applications involving ligaments, tendons, and bone. The Well Trust product information identifies applications including fixation involving shoulder joints, knee joints, ligaments, tendons, and bones.
The actual application of a specific Suture Button should always be determined according to its product documentation, intended indication, surgical technique, and applicable regulatory requirements.
Different anatomical areas may require different button dimensions and fixation configurations. Therefore, selecting the correct combination of titanium plate and adjustable coil is an important part of product evaluation.
Several factors should be considered when sourcing a Suture Button:
Plate dimensions: Confirm the required length, width, thickness, and hole configuration according to the intended fixation system.
Material: Check whether a titanium plate is appropriate for the intended application and product requirements.
Loop configuration: Determine whether an adjustable coil or another suture configuration is required.
Component matching: Confirm that the selected plate and coil are designed to work together within the same fixation system.
Application: Consider the intended anatomical location and fixation procedure when selecting the product configuration.
Well Trust provides Suture Button components with different titanium plate configurations and an adjustable coil option. The product range is designed to provide different dimensions for customers evaluating orthopaedic fixation requirements.
