Trans-pacific Healthcare is involved in importing and distribution of a wide range of medical devices for healthcare facilities across Australia and New Zealand. They source products from Epimed International, Radiaxon X-Ray Gloves and Flexipore Wound Dressing.
Carpo-metacarpal Implants from Trans-Pacific Healthcare are fabricated to relieve basal thumb joint pain associated with carpometacarpal arthritis. Carpo-metacarpal Implants are designed to replace the proximal ending point of the first metacarpal, and they help in cases of rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, post-fracture deformation or bone loss especially. They present either as a painful, unstable thumb or a thumb with limited range of motion. The trapezium of these devices are milled and not resected, which decreases the threat of trapezium fracture. The angled and counterbalance heads permits for enhanced and better joint functions. Pyrocarbon materials are perfectly well-matched for articulation adjacent to bone and native cartilage.
Unipolar design of these metacarpal implants achieves an optimal anatomical joint function and do not permit rotary motion within the diaphysis. These devices help in bringing back the strength, mobility and long-term stability to the trapeziometacarpal joints. They also conserve thumb height for improved array of movement and preserves serious soft tissue structure for better sturdiness.
