MODULE AIR: Adaptive Fracture Fixation Kit
MODULE AIR, inspired by traditional Chinese medicine, uses a dynamic fixation structure with thermoplastic panels and airbags to improve adaptability and comfort. Transparent PET panels enhance stability and visibility. An adjustable inflation port guides precise air pressure control, ensuring blood circulation and preventing distal tissue necrosis. This design balances efficiency and adaptability, minimising secondary injuries during transfers.
