Cardiothoracic Surgery

Procedure

The FiberTape sternal closure system is a 100% nonmetallic, suture-based alternative to metal wires traditionally used to close the sternum after cardiac surgery. The FiberTape sternal closure implant, which is implanted similarly to metal wires, provides strong, reproducible compression that helps support sternal approximation and stabilization.

Product

DynaNite CT nitinol staples are intended to be used in conjunction with FiberTape® sternal closure to augment sternotomy fixation. These shape-changing, dynamic implants increase sternal stability by producing constant compression across the sternotomy.1 DynaNite CT staples provide a simple solution and streamlined technique to further aid in minimizing sternal movement.
