Frequently Asked Questions
Q
What are the main indications for the PRCL locking plate system?
The PRCL (Point-contact Reconstruction Compression Locking) system is designed for veterinary use, specifically for small animal orthopedic fracture surgeries.
Q
How does the "point-contact" design benefit veterinary patients?
The point-contact structure functions similarly to an arch bridge. It provides superior construct stability while minimizing contact with the bone surface, which protects the surrounding soft tissue, facilitates optimal blood flow, and accelerates bone healing.
Q
What plate sizes are available in this locking system?
The system comes in four distinct sizes to fit different small animal anatomies: PRCL-MINI, PRCL-S, PRCL-M, and PRCL-L.
Q
What materials are used for the manufacturing of these implants?
To ensure reliability and biocompatibility, nearly all of our premium raw materials are imported directly from Germany, Japan, and Switzerland.
Q
What types of shipment options and delivery times are offered?
We ship worldwide via leading air express couriers (DHL, UPS, TNT, FedEx). Standard orders are processed and shipped within 24 hours of receiving payment.
Q
Does the system include a full set of surgical instruments?
Yes, the system includes a comprehensive range of surgical tools, such as neutral and locking drill sleeves, drill stops, quick coupling drill bits, bending pliers, depth gauges, screwdrivers, and dedicated instrument/implant trays. Note that tool configurations may vary slightly between different models.
