T-Handle For Dynamic Hip Screws

Description

T-Handle For Dynamic Hip Screws

The DHS T-handle turns the hand instruments of the dynamic hip screw set. Its T shape gives good leverage for steady, controlled turning.

Why a T-handle

A straight handle can slip in a gloved hand. By contrast, a T-handle lets the surgeon apply torque with both hands. Therefore turning stays smooth and controlled.

What it drives

It connects to the DHS tap and other hand-driven instruments. Then the surgeon turns it to cut threads or insert parts. Check compatibility with your set before use.

Who uses the DHS T-handle

Trauma surgeons use it during hip fracture fixation. Also, scrub staff assemble it with the matching instrument. It is a standard part of the DHS tray.

Smooth turning

Turn with even pressure rather than jerks. Consequently, the thread cuts cleanly and the guide wire stays put. Pause to check imaging as needed.

Compatibility

Connections differ between systems. Therefore tell us which DHS set you use. We will confirm fit before shipping.

Care

Clean the coupling area carefully, since debris can block the connection. Dry the handle fully. Check that the coupling locks securely.

How we stand behind the T-handle

Every T-handle has a warranty spanning three years against manufacturing defects by default. Our team in Atlanta goes over the T-handle by eye before shipment. The FDA recognizes ASTM F899 for stainless for instruments. Busy hospitals order one per tray for back-to-back cases. Looking for advice on options? Ask us any time.
