Resnick Small Bone Tamp with Oblique K-Wire Hole – 1.6 mm Hole
Designed by Charles Resnick, MD
Design allows for the concurrent reduction of a fracture and placement of a wire into the fracture site — especially helpful when the surgical exposure is small and tight, the fracture fragments are small, and the reduction is demanding
- The serrated distal end minimizes slippage on the cortical surface, does not interfere with the placement of the guidewire and allows for subsequent surgeon-decided, intraoperative angulation of the wiring once the first cortex is drilled
- Especially useful in fractures where there is involvement of an articular surface, for example, mallet fractures of the distal phalanx, articular fractures that involve ligamentous attachments or tendon attachments of the phalanges, scaphoid pole small fracture fragments or other small carpal fractures, and radial styloid fractures

Accuracy Statement for devices with a measuring function: Devices with a measuring function are considered non-critical, non-calibrated, and are intended for reference-only measurements. While it provides a helpful visual guide for relative measurements, it is not calibrated to specific precision standards. Measurements taken with this device should not be considered accurate enough for critical applications requiring strict dimensional tolerances. General manufacturing tolerances of +\- 1% at each graduation, or 2% of the full scale apply, but no conformance qualifications are provided or implied.
