MicroPort Ortho Rolls Out HIPTURN Tensioning Instrument

MicroPort Orthopedics has released its HIPTURN (Tension Under ReductioN) device, giving surgeons the tool to trial different offset and neck options during hip replacement without removing any constructs.
 
The instrument removes the need for multiple trials to save OR time and save costs. It integrates into MicroPort’s Hip product line including the Profemur hip stems, Dynasty and Prime acetabular cups, and using the SuperPath and AnteriorPath surgical techniques.
 
Dr. Pavel Muradov told the press, “It is refreshing to see a company create tools that are beneficial to the surgeon and the patient. The HIPTURN tensioning instrument saves time, causes less tissue trauma and could revolutionize the way total hip arthroplasty is performed.”
 
Rob Cripe, MicroPort’s chief commercial officer added, “We are excited to bring a product to market which enhances the surgeon’s experience with our implant. This device not only makes the surgeon experience better, but it also provides faster, more efficient data which ultimately encourages better safety for the patient. The HIPTURN tensioning instrument is the first of many product launches on MicroPort’s horizon designed to deliver solutions to our customers and return patients to their daily lifestyle more seamlessly.”
