Product Description:

Pediatric orthopedic fixator is a medical device commonly used to treat or support pediatric fractures, injuries, or other orthopedic issues. Its function is similar to that of adult orthopedic fixators, but it is more suitable for the special needs of children in design and use. The functions of pediatric orthopedic fixators include:

1. Fixed and stable fracture site: Children’s skeletal development is not yet fully mature, so special attention should be paid to the stability of the fracture site in fracture treatment. Pediatric orthopedic fixators can provide stable support, fix the fracture end, prevent fracture displacement or dislocation, and promote fracture healing.

2. Reduce pain: Children may experience pain and discomfort after a fracture. Pediatric orthopedic fixators can reduce the pain caused by the fracture by fixing and supporting the fracture site, providing a comfortable treatment environment.

3. Promoting healing: Children’s fractures usually heal faster than adults, but still require appropriate support and protection. Pediatric orthopedic fixators create a favorable healing environment by fixing the fracture site, promoting fracture healing and normal bone development.

4. Prevention of recurrence: During treatment, pediatric orthopedic fixators can effectively prevent further displacement or recurrence of fractures, reducing the risk and complexity of treatment.

5. Support for Rehabilitation: After fracture healing, pediatric orthopedic fixators can still provide additional support to help children gradually return to normal activities and promote the rehabilitation process.

6. Adaptation to growth: Due to the possibility of changes in bone size and shape during the growth process of children, pediatric orthopedic fixators are usually designed with adjustment functions to ensure adaptation to different stages of children.

Overall, pediatric orthopedic fixators play an important role in treating pediatric fractures, reducing pain, promoting healing, and supporting rehabilitation. However, before using the fixator, it should be evaluated and guided by a professional doctor to ensure the correct selection and use method.
