NiTiBOND® Stapes Prosthesis – crimp free prosthesis with loop made of head activated Shape Memory Nitinol, stem in pure Titanium. Suitable for almost all incus sizes. For Stapedioplasty
The NiTiBOND® Stapes Prosthesis is a crimp-free prosthesis, that combines proven properties of CliP Stapes Prostheses with the benefits of shape memory heat activated nitinol. Extensive experience in the development of stapes prostheses, knowledge of the middle ear, creates the basis for a geometry of the unique nitinol loop making it suitable for almost all incus sizes.
The nitinol loop has four integrated contact zones, conforming to the asymmetrical dimensions of the incus. Additionally, the loop also features three independent activation zones which keep thermal transfer from the mucosa surface during laser activation. These activation zones can be sequentially closed producing a custom coupling to the individualized incus.
The laser settings are determined outside the middle ear with the aid of the Thermo-Dummy. The dummy is delivered together with the NiTiBOND®.
Features & Benefits
- ThermoBlock zones protect mucosa and incus from overheating
- Well-defined areas for heat application increase safety of the surgical procedure
- Shape memory properties enable a crimp-free application
- The flat and broad NiTiBOND band loop minimizes the risk of injuring the mucosa by diffusing pressure on the incus
- MR conditional for the future: 7.0 Tesla (see www.kurzmed.com)
