internal fixation devices
Internal fixation devices are medical tools used to stabilize broken bones from within the body. They include metal plates, screws, rods, and pins that are surgically placed to hold fractured bone pieces together, ensuring proper alignment during healing. These devices provide stability, promote faster healing, and restore normal function, especially in complex or severe fractures. Inside the body, they remain permanently or are removed after the bone has healed. Internal fixation helps prevent movement at the fracture site and allows patients to start moving sooner, reducing complications and improving recovery outcomes.
