FiberTape® Sternal Closure Technique

Specifically engineered to replace metal wires, the FiberTape® sternal closure system is a 100% nonmetallic, suture-based solution. Its unique, high-strength suture design delivers uncompromising strength and the biomechanical performance to effectively manage the demands of median sternotomy fixation.1 Furthermore, implanting the FiberTape sternal closure system is straightforward, like metal wires, but enables surgeons to deliver reproducible compression to help ensure sternal approximation and lasting stabilization.
