Norian SRS (Skeletal Repair System) is an injectable, moldable and biocompatible calcium phosphate, that sets at body temperature into carbonated apatite. It has a compressive strength of approximately 50 MPa, which is 4 – 10 times greater than the compressive strength of cancellous bone. Norian SRS closely resembles the mineral phase of bone and gradually remodels to bone via cellular new bone formation.
Key Features & Benefits
- High compressive strength — Early return to function
- Injectable — Allows minimal invasive surgery, optimal fill
- Not exothermic — Preserves blood supply
- Remodels gradually over time, will maintain mechanical integrity — Restores anatomical form and function
- Injectable — Allows minimal invasive surgery and optimal filling
Indications
Norian SRS is indicated mainly for elderly/ osteoporotic patients to allow for early return to function.
- Fractures of distal radius
- Fractures of proximal and distal tibia
- Fractures of calcaneus
- Fractures of proximal and distal femur
- Fractures of proximal humerus
- Fractures of acetabulum
