Kalnberza Compression-Distraction Apparatus

In modern orthopedic practice, various methods of treating pathologies of the human skeleton are used. It is important to make a timely and correct choice of treatment tactics, which must be adequate to certain manifestations of the disease, and also take into account the operator’s skill level. One treatment option is compression-distraction therapy, a surgical procedure that stretches or compresses the affected limb joints. The author of the idea of ​​​​providing a compression effect was a scientist from Finland Kalnbers, thanks to whom the method was named after him.

During the compression-distraction procedure, the joint connecting the bone is released and compressed. The goal of this procedure is to achieve the maximum possible restoration of joint mobility and avoid complications. The long-term goal of such an operation is to increase the endurance of the musculoskeletal system, reduce the pain it experiences, and also speed up

The Kalnberza compression-distraction device is a medical device intended for the treatment of fractures and bone injuries. It was invented in 1984 by Russian doctor Alexander Kalnberza, who proposed its use for the effective and safe treatment of fractures. The device is a system of several parts that are attached to the patient's bones and provide compression and stretching for several weeks.

The main advantage of the Kalnberza apparatus is that it allows you to speed up the healing process and avoid complications associated with a long stay in a cast or other types of dressings. This device not only helps speed up recovery, but also allows the patient to return to his normal life in the shortest possible time. The device also ensures safety and comfort for the patient, as it does not cause
