Description
COPAL® exchange G Trials are an accessory device for intra-operative determination of the correct size of the COPAL® exchange G Spacer. COPAL® exchange G Trials are used for a very short period of time (few minutes) during the first stage of a two-stage exchange septic revision surgery after thorough debridement and are intended for single use. COPAL® exchange G hip and knee Trials resemble the COPAL® exchange G hip and knee Spacers in size, shape and geometry. COPAL® exchange G Trials are easily distin-guishable from COPAL® exchange G Spacers due to their hollow body, their prominent blue color and the stamping “TRIAL - DO NOT IMPLANT”.COPAL® exchange G Trials are available for hip and knee. COPAL® exchange G hip Trials resemble a hemi-endopros-thesis and are available in 8 different sizes. COPAL® exchange G knee Trials consist of a femoral and tibial component and are available in 3 different sizes.COPAL® exchange G Trials do not contain gentamicin.
