Peta is intended for use in the stabilization and fixation of fractures of the anterior chest wall including sternal fixation following sternotomy and sternal reconstructive surgical procedures, to promote fusion.

Every year, over one million people worldwide undergo open-heart surgery in the fight against cardiovascular disease.

Peta Sternal Closure System applies the proven principles of locking rigid fixation to sternal closure and offers a rigid fixation alternative for mid-line sternotomies as well as a variety of minimally invasive approaches including the mini-sternotomy and mini-thoracotomy.

Peta Sternal Closure plates thinner and anatomical design help address the challenges associated with fixating a 90 degree sternal incision or rib osteotomy. The plates increase stability at the osteotomy site, while still allowing for minimally invasive access.

Benefits of Rigid Fixation

• Increased stability
• Greater strength
• Reduced sternal separation
• Superior bone healing
• Reduced pain and narcotic usage
