Telescopic Rods are structural components used within Orthopedic External Fixation systems, functioning as Connecting Rod Components that connect different parts of the External Fixator and contribute to establishing the required Frame Geometry according to the surgical plan and fixation system design.
Telescopic Rods are integrated with compatible External Fixation components such as Rings, Arches, Clamps, and Connecting Elements to create a Modular Fixation Construct according to the bone location, anatomy, spacing between Frame components, and fixation requirements.
According to the provided product data, the range is listed under the general reference:
Cat. No.: AMS 602.016
It is available in three lengths: 100 mm, 150 mm, and 200 mm, providing a progressive range of Rod Length options during Preoperative Frame Planning and Intraoperative Frame Assembly.
This variation supports selection of the appropriate Rod Configuration according to Frame Dimensions, Anatomical Region, Ring Position, and Required Component Spacing, while each rod should only be used with compatible components and according to the Surgical Technique of the fixation system.
Each length also carries an individual Cat. No. and GTIN Number, supporting Product Identification, Traceability, Surgical Inventory Management, Procurement, and Stock Control.
Product Description
A Telescopic Rod is a Structural Connecting Component used within External Skeletal Fixation systems to connect elements of the Fixator Frame and maintain the Frame Configuration determined by the surgeon.
Its general position within the system can be represented as follows:
Ring / Arch → Clamp or Connection Interface → Telescopic Rod → Frame Component
The Rod functions as a connecting element between different components within the Modular External Fixator Construct.
The range is available in:
100 MM | 150 MM | 200 MM
Product Components and Design
- Rod Body
The main longitudinal body of the product, functioning as the Structural Connecting Element between External Fixator components.
- Telescopic Rod Configuration
The product is officially classified as Telescopic Rods, placing it within the Rod Components designed for External Fixation Frames.
The actual movement range or Adjustment Range of the telescopic mechanism is not specified in the provided table.
- End Connection Interface
One end of the Rod features a Connection Feature designed for attachment to compatible components within the fixation system.
The Thread Type or Connector Dimensions are not specified in the currently available data.
- Opposite Rod End
The opposite end of the Rod forms part of the connection or assembly mechanism within the External Fixator Construct according to the fixation system design.
- Length-Specific Configuration
The product is available in three Length Configurations:
- 100 mm
- 150 mm
- 200 mm
providing different options during Frame Planning.
Product Use
Telescopic Rods are used within compatible Orthopedic External Fixation systems as Structural Connection Elements between components of the Fixator Frame.
Depending on the fixation system design and approved indications, they may be incorporated into:
- Circular External Fixation
- Modular External Fixation
- External Fracture Stabilization
- Limb Reconstruction Constructs
- Bone Segment Stabilization
- Connection of Rings, Arches, and other Frame Components
- Adjustment and configuration of Frame Geometry according to the Surgical Plan
Selection of the appropriate Rod Length depends on:
- External Fixator Geometry
- Distance Between Frame Components
- Ring / Arch Position
- Anatomical Region
- Required Frame Clearance
- Construct Configuration
- Preoperative Planning
- Intraoperative Frame Assembly
The Final Frame Configuration should be determined by a Qualified Orthopedic Surgeon according to the approved IFU and Surgical Technique.
Key Benefits
