The Quick Solution to Tissue Repair

The TWINFIX^◊Ti QUICK-T^◊ Fixation System provides a single-step tissue repair method that can be used for primary or secondary tissue fixation. This through-tendon technique combines the proven TWINFIX^◊Ti Soft Tissue Anchor with pre-tied knot technology, coupling the anchor with a high strength "T" bar made of PEEK-OPTIMA® LT3 polymer Invibio®. The result is a secure, adjustable fixation system that can be use wherever a larger tissue footprint is needed.

The QUICK-T^◊System is a single-portal system that gives surgeons the ability to arthroscopically perform high strength, multi-row repairs more closely resembling those found in open or mini-open procedures. The low profile "T" component is delivered through the standard anchor delivery system, eliminating the need for special cannulas, and the "T" provides a 10mm tissue bridge once it's deployed and secured to the tissue surface. The QUICK-T^◊System is also an excellent solution for biceps tenodesis and rotator cuff repair.

The TWINFIX^◊Ti QUICK-T^◊ Fixation System has a newly designed inserter handle that meets the changing needs of the arthroscopic surgeon. This robust handle provides new capabilities that give you more control in deploying Smith & Nephew suture anchors, when and where you need them.

Improved suture track - Ensures smooth suture release.

External suture posts - Protects and controls the sutures.

Physical mechanism for grasping sutures - Securely holds anchor on the tip of the inserter

Flat handle surface - Makes it easy to tap/strike with mallet.

Abbreviated Technique Guide

QuickT_Overview_AbbreviatedTechniqueGuide1

Using the depth gauge provided, penetrate the tissue at the disired insertion site to determine the insertion depth and insertion angle. The etch lines on the depth guage correspond to markings on the inserter shaft.

After inserting the TWINFIX^◊Ti QUICK-T^◊ anchor to the indicated depth, remove the insertion device to deply the QUICK-T^◊ Use the ELITE^◊QUICK-T^◊ Knot Manipulator to push the knot to the surface and reduce the tear. Once the knot is secure, cut the suture tail to finish the repair.
