The Tensioning Post (ZX24.095) is a simple yet vital accessory used in the graft preparation phase of ACL reconstruction when using loop fixation systems. The post is ideal for pre-tensioning grafts when using the Loop. It provides a secure anchor point around which the adjustable loop of a fixation device (like the ABS Button with Adjustable Loop) can be secured. This allows the surgeon to apply controlled, consistent tension to the graft before implantation, minimizing post-operative stretch or “creep” of the suture/graft construct.
Key features include:
-
Primary Use: Ideal for pre-tensioning grafts when using the Loop.
-
Function: Provides a stable anchor point for loop-based fixation devices (Inferred).
-
Compatibility: Designed for use with Loop fixation systems (Inferred).
-
Code No.: Identified as ZX24.095 (Inferred from image title).
-
Application: Helps stabilize the graft construct by removing fiber creep before surgery (Inferred).
