Indications
COPAL® knee moulds are designed to prepare spacers by filling the moulds with bone cement. COPAL® knee moulds are disposable cement spacer moulds indicated for use to mold a temporary total knee replacement (TKR) for skeletally mature patients undergoing a two-stage procedure due to a septic process. The molded temporary knee spacer is indicated for an implantation period of 180 days or less. Because of inherent mechanical limitations of the device material (PALACOS® R+G bone cement), the molded temporary spacer is only indicated for patients who will consistently use traditional mobility assist devices (e.g. crutches, walkers) throughout the implant period.
