Orthopaedic fixation plate, non-bioabsorbable, non-sterile. A non-sterile implantable sheet of firm material intended to be attached to fractured long bone fragments with screws to bridge and stabilize the fracture gap, and shield the site from stress as the bone heals; the material is not chemically degraded or absorbed by natural body processes (includes implant grade metal such as surgical steel, titanium alloy, or carbon fibre). The device is typically used to treat traumatic or pathological orthopaedic fractures; it may also be used to temporarily augment bone following a lengthening procedure, or for arthrodesis (joint fusion). This device is intended to be sterilized prior to use.

Patient-centered outcomes improve noticeably with the Alignx Ankle Fusion Plate, particularly in terms of fracture stabilization and quicker healing times. The plate's robust design provides excellent support, minimizing the risk of redisplacement. However, the lack of biodegradability necessitates a second surgery for removal, which can be an added burden for some patients and may increase overall recovery time depending on individual factors. Overall, its effectiveness in promoting bone fusion makes it a valuable asset in orthopaedic surgery, despite this limitation. Surgeons should weigh the pros and cons carefully for each patient's specific case.
