Treatments tested in this trial

  • REMEDY Spectrum IM Spacer Nail

    Combination product

    The REMEDY SPECTRUM IM Spacer Nail is a single-use implant made of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) which is internally reinforced with a stainless-steel core (ASTM F138, ISO 5832-1). The PMMA of the REMEDY SPECTRUM IM Spacer Nail is laden with gentamicin and vancomycin. The nail has a slot at the distal end and can be combined with the surgeon's choice of fixation to prevent migration depending on the anatomy of the patient. The REMEDY SPECTRUM IM Spacer Nail is available in two lengths (150mm and 300mm) to accommodate variations in patient anatomy. The distal end has a threaded recess for mating with the optional distal cap, as well as the insertion and removal tools.
