Product Overview
The Caspar Multi-Level Distractor is an advanced rack-and-pinion instrument designed to separate three or more adjacent vertebrae during complex multi-level Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF). The Left-Sided orientation refers to the placement of the distraction bar on the left side of the surgical corridor. Forged from high-tensile surgical steel, it provides the mechanical authority to maintain a “liquid-smooth” and stationary operative window, allowing the surgeon to work on multiple levels without repositioning the entire frame.
Key Features
-
“Beast-Force” Extended Rack: Features a significantly longer geared bar than standard single-level distractors. This allows the instrument to bridge across multiple vertebral bodies, providing a “dead-lock” on the entire surgical segment.
-
Left-Oriented Configuration: Specifically designed with the distraction mechanism on the left side. This accommodates the surgeon’s entry path and assistant positioning, ensuring the “beast” provides maximum clearance for secondary instrumentation.
-
Multi-Pin Sleeve Alignment: Equipped with high-stability sleeves that slide along the extended rack to interface with Caspar distraction pins. This ensures that the distraction force remains parallel across all levels, preventing sagittal imbalance during the procedure.
-
Precision Adjustment Control: Features an ergonomic, high-torque thumb-screw that provides “liquid-smooth” expansion. The clinician can calibrate the tension for each specific level with extreme granularity, respecting the integrity of the vertebral endplates.
-
Surgical-Grade Resilience: Manufactured from premium, hardened stainless steel. It is built to withstand the cumulative tension of multi-level distraction and thousands of high-heat sterilization cycles without losing its structural alignment.
