Collateral Ligament Stabilizer System Used to Protect Knee Ligaments When Cruciate Ligaments Are Torn

 

Collateral Ligament Stabilize

Collateral Ligament Stabilizer System

The collateral ligament stabilizer system stabilizes the lateral side of the knee joint, mainly in varus stress and posterolateral rotation of the tibia (long bone located in the lower leg) relative to the femur (the longest and the strongest bone in the body). The system acts as a stabilizer to anterior and posterior tibial translation when the cruciate ligaments are torn. Ligaments are elastic bands of tissue that connect bones and provide strength and stability to the joint. Collateral ligaments of the knee are located on the outside part of the knee joint.

 According to Coherent Market Insights the Collateral Ligament Stabilizer System Market Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022-2028

Collateral ligaments connect the bones of the upper leg and lower leg, around the knee joint. The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) runs on the outer side of the knee. The medial collateral ligament is recognized as being a primary static stabilizer of the knee and assists in passively stabilizing the joint. The lateral collateral ligament (LCL), also known as the fibular ligament, serves as one of the key stabilizers of the knee joint. The medial collateral ligament has a good blood supply and usually responds well to nonsurgical treatment.

Collateral ligament injury occurs when the ligaments are stretched or torn. A partial tear occurs when only part of the ligament is torn. A complete tear occurs when the entire ligament is torn. This type of injury occurs in sports. These often contact injuries, but not always. Various stress tests are done to diagnose a collateral ligament injury as well as to determine the ligament loosening. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can also be used to diagnose collateral ligament injury, while serious tears or ruptures require surgery for the treatment.

Thus, with the increase in sports injury and the growing geriatric population, the demand or use of collateral ligament stabilizer systems is also increasing at a rapid pace. For example, in December 2020, Arthrex announced the launch of the SwiveLock ACL Repair Kit, the first and only U.S. FDA-cleared kit for the primary repair of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears.

Signal Jammer Market Signal Jammer Market - Global Industry Insights, Trends, Outlook, and Opportunity Analysis, 2022-2028. Market Overview: , A signal jammer is an electronic device that is designed to block or disrupt wireless signals such as those used by mobile phones, GPS systems, and Wi-Fi networks. Signal jammers work by transmitting radio waves at the same frequency as the targeted device, effectively blocking the device's signal and preventing it from receiving or transmitting data. Signal jammers are often used in military and defense applications to prevent the use of communication devices by enemy forces. They are also used in other settings, such as prisons, to prevent unauthorized use of communication devices. However, the use of signal jammers is illegal in many countries, and their use can have unintended consequences, such as disrupting emergency communication systems. According to Coherent Market Insights the Signal Jammer Market Industry Insights, Trends, Outloo

Wearable Injector are Devices Which Adhere to the Body and Help in Administering Drug to the Patient

Image
Wearable Injector   A wearable injector is a medical device that enables the user to administer drugs through the skin. Injectors can be either prefilled or unfilled and are compatible with a variety of drugs. In addition, they are safe and convenient to use. There are several companies that have announced their intentions to develop such a device. Injectors can reduce the number of trips to the hospital for medication delivery. These devices are particularly useful for people who need to receive large volumes of medication and are not able to carry a syringe. The wearable device helps patients reduce the risk of acquiring infections while away from their homes. Several companies are developing wearable patch injectors that adhere to the patient's skin and administer liquid pharmaceuticals subcutaneously. These products can reduce the number of trips to the hospital and improve patient compliance and quality of life. Furthermore, the technology can also help increase adherence to t
