OrthoXel is a specialist orthopaedic trauma company dedicated to advancing the future of fracture fixation with its orthopaedic trauma portfolio. Their mission is to improve patient outcomes and transform trauma healthcare. Their Apex intramedullary nails, for fracture of the tibia (shin bone) and femur (thigh bone) are the first and only nails with controlled axial micromotion to facilitate accelerated healing for all patients. Working with leading US & Irish surgeons OrthoXel has complemented the Apex range with the Vertex Hip Fracture Nailing System (Vertex HFN). The Vertex HFN is a novel intramedullary nailing system specifically designed to solve the key issues associated with the treatment of hip fractures.

Orthoxel's products are currently being used in Ireland and USA.
Key benefits:
  • Apex Nail's controlled axial micromotion promotes secondary bone healing by stimulating callus formation, leading to faster and more reliable healing outcomes
  • Apex Nail's torsional stability provides outstanding torsional stability, reducing stress on screws and enhancing product fatigue life, particularly useful in challenging clinical cases
  • Vertex Nail's stability provides 2.4x more rotational stability and up to 45% greater resistance to cutout compared to competing devices
  • Vertex Nail's versatility provide multiple proximal locking options for treating a range of hip fracture types (simple and complex)
