Stryker Releases TPX HD Small Bone Power Tool

Stryker has launched TPX HD, a small bone power tool designed to support performance, control, and ergonomics during total joint revisions, minimally invasive surgery, and oral maxillofacial procedures.

TPX HD incorporates a tapered attachment design to improve visibility in confined spaces. A housing is engineered to act as a barrier for motor hear at high speeds, and enhanced ergonomics are achieved through a shorter handpiece and improved grip compared to the TPX Micro Drill.

The tool delivers up to 296% more torque and 40% faster performance compared to the TPX Micro Drill at high speed. It has customized control via I.D. Touch software in Stryker’s CORE 2 Console so surgeons can tailor drill response and sensitivity.

Specialized attachments including multiple attachment lengths, a PROStep 1.5 reducer, and capability to cut and remove and cut metal and bone cement.

“Revision procedures are some of the most demanding cases surgeons face, especially when metal cutting is involved,” said Mike Carlin, president of Stryker’s Ortho Tech division. “TPX HD was designed with those moments in mind, when visibility is limited, precision matters and surgeons need a tool they can trust to perform.”

Last month, the company launched its Pangea plating system in Europe. The devices are non-active implants engineered to provide temporary stabilization for bones or bone fragments.
