MI Screw
Product description
The MI-SCREW is a self-drilling self-tapping screw made from ISO 5832-3 standard Titanium.
The screw comes in sterile double blister packs with 5 traceability stickers.
Dimensional characteristics
The MI-SCREW 4mm (head) 3mm (body) diameter screws are available in lengths of 32mm, 34mm, 36mm, 38mm, 40 mm, 42 mmm, 44 mm, 46 mm, 48 mm, 50 mm, 52 mm, 54 mm, 56 mm, 58 mm and 60 mm.
The MI-SCREW is ideal for carrying out minimally invasive chevron osteotomy in the treatment of Hallux Valgus.
The bevelled head allows the screw to be set flush to the medial cortical bone to minimise screw protrusion and irritation of soft tissue.
The screw head is longer than that of standard screws used for chevron osteotomy. This provides better contact with the medial cortical bone, the screw being positioned obliquely at an angle in order to increase its stability and to obtain uniform compression.
REF 38.92.XX

To ensure traceability, the screws are individually packaged in double blister packs, the first containing the screw and a sterilisation indicator label; the second blister contains the first blister and five stickers with the screw reference, description and batch number.
The packed screws are then sent to SYNERGY HEALTH for sterilisation by gamma radiation according to the ISO 11137-02, ISO 11737-1, ISO 11737-2, EN 552, EN 556 standards and dose mapping. After sterilisation, SYNERGY HEALTH returns the batch of sterilised screws with a certificate of sterilisation by gamma radiation.
The screws in the packaging are then labelled. The label includes the description, the reference, the production batch number, the method of sterilisation, expiry date, the "single use" and "read instructions before use" symbols, the manufacturer's name and the CE 1014 markings.
The screws are packed sterilised in the same conditions in boxes identically labelled as above, and stored in closed cupboards away from direct light.
