Proximal Femoral Elevators

In orthopedic and trauma surgery, the need for instruments that ensure safe mobilization of bone structures is paramount. The Proximal Femoral Elevator is a vital tool in procedures involving the hip joint, particularly total hip replacement and revision surgeries. By providing controlled leverage and stable retraction, it enables surgeons to expose the femur with precision, minimizing risks and ensuring accurate implant placement.

Clinical Applications

The Proximal Femoral Elevator is widely used in:

• Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) – For elevating and stabilizing the proximal femur during implant placement.

• Hip Resurfacing – Ensures proper exposure and positioning for accurate joint restoration.

• Revision Surgeries – Facilitates retraction when dealing with scarred or compromised bone.

• Trauma & Fracture Surgery – Provides stable manipulation for fracture fixation around the hip joint.

Its design makes it indispensable for surgeons requiring controlled bone leverage with minimal tissue disruption.

Design Advantages

• Optimized Blade Profile – Allows precise positioning beneath the femur.

• Ergonomic Handle – Comfortable grip reduces hand fatigue during long procedures.

• German Stainless Steel Construction – Strong, durable, and resistant to wear.

• Smooth & Rounded Edges – Protects surrounding muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

• Balanced Weight Distribution – Provides maximum control and stability.

Technical Specifications

• Material: Premium German stainless steel

• Length: Typically 8–11 inches (custom sizes available)

• Blade Shape: Angled for leverage under proximal femur

• Sterilization: Fully autoclavable

• Certifications: ISO 9001, ISO 13485, CE

Benefits in Surgery

• Precise Control – Assists in accurate implant positioning during hip replacement.

• Enhanced Exposure – Provides a clear surgical field by safely elevating the femur.

• Reduced Trauma – Smooth blade minimizes unnecessary damage to soft tissues.

• Long-Term Durability – Withstands repeated clinical use without compromise.

• Reusable Instrument – Cost-effective investment for hospitals and surgical centers.

Comparison with Similar Instruments

Compared to general orthopedic elevators, the Proximal Femoral Elevator offers:

• A specialized design for hip procedures.

• Stronger leverage with less effort.

• A safer blade profile for controlled retraction.

This makes it a superior choice for surgeons performing hip arthroplasty and trauma surgeries.

Care & Maintenance

To maintain optimal function:

• Clean immediately after use with neutral-pH solutions.

• Sterilize using autoclave cycles recommended for surgical steel.

• Avoid prolonged chemical exposure.

• Inspect regularly for wear or damage.

• Store in instrument trays to protect blade edges.
