Medline UNITE is launching the REFLEX TETRA Nitinol Staple portfolio, its fifth implant family.
REFLEX TETRA four-leg staples are designed to fit the bone structures and anatomies of the MTP (metatarsophalangeal), first and lesser TMT (tarsometatarsal) and TN (talonavicular) joints. Medline UNITE is reported to be the first to introduce targeting guides to efficiently place a cannulated screw or two-legged staple in the correct position through the REFLEX TETRA staple’s inner legs.
The Medline UNITE REFLEX Foot Recon Nitinol Implant System is one of the first comprehensive nitinol implant systems with FDA clearances for MTP, TMT and TN specific indications, and provides all staples, discs, targeting guides, joint prep and related instrumentation in a single, comprehensive tray for versatility and intraoperative efficiency.
Medline launched its REFLEX two-leg staples in 2021, followed by its REFLEX dynamic disc in 2022.
“Foot and ankle surgeons have become accustomed to robust implant systems with indication-specific options, joint prep instruments, and the availability of targeting guides. On the other hand, staples have mostly been provided as individual or ancillary implants with basic designs and only essential disposable instruments required for implantation,” said Dr. R. James Toussaint, MD of Gainesville, FL. “Medline UNITE’s REFLEX Foot Recon system is the first of its kind to take everything surgeons expect from a modern comprehensive implant tray and apply it to nitinol staples.”
