SambaScrew SI Fixation System
The SambaScrew® System is a complete solution to fixating the sacroiliac joint. It consists of a 9mm diameter, cannulated screw with multiple fenestrations on its shaft with streamlined instrumentation.
Indications
The SambaScrew SI Fixation System is intended for fixation of sacroiliac joint disruptions. This fixation device is to only be used in skeletally mature patients.
Contraindications
The SambaScrew SI Fixation System is contraindicated for use in patients with:
Open wounds, infection, presence of tumor, pregnancy, osteoporosis, certain metabolic disorders affecting osteogenesis, certain inflammatory/neuromuscular conditions, and certain neuromuscular deficits which would place an unusually heavy load on the device during the healing period.
The implant is made from Ti-6AI-4V ELI (medical-grade titanium alloy). The fixation implant is contraindicated in any individual with a known or suspected allergy, sensitivity or intolerance to metal.
