HBS 2
After more than 100,000 successful HBS procedures worldwide, the time had come to evaluate the experiences gained and to utilize them for a new generation of headless bone screws. A great challenge in designing the HBS 2 implants consisted in retaining the proven implant geometry while enhancing the options for individual fracture treatment.
Another objective was to simplify the handling of the HBS 2 system for all parties involved – the surgeon, the assisting OR personnel and the CSSD (Central Sterilization Service Department) staff – utilizing all the technologies that are now available. By reducing the surgical steps and enhancing the ergonomics of the HBS 2 system, immediate benefits are created for patients as well as providing for substantial economic advantages.
