Copal Knee Moulds are disposable forms used to prepare bone-cement spacers during two-stage revision of an infected knee replacement. They create temporary femoral and tibial spacer components rather than serving as the implanted material themselves. The molded components can be used in either knee.
The temporary spacer is intended for skeletally mature patients undergoing revision because of a septic process, with implantation for 180 days or less. Its role is to preserve the joint space between stages. The moulds use the specified Palacos R+G antibiotic bone cement.
Listed Item
COPAL® knee moulds are sterile single-use moulds used for the preparation of spacers that are intended as temporary knee replacements as part of two-stage septic joint prosthesis revision. COPAL® knee moulds comprise a tibial component and a femoral component, which together form a bearing and move against one another. They can be used in both the right and the left knee joint. The spacer function provides that after removal of the prosthesis the existing joint space is retained and contraction of the musculature and the surrounding tissues is prevented. COPAL® knee moulds are intended for single use and must not be re-used or resterilised.
Use Conditions
Patients must consistently use mobility aids such as crutches or a walker throughout the spacer period because of the cement’s mechanical limitations. Treatment accompanies systemic antimicrobial therapy. The moulds are supplied sterile for single use and must not be reused or resterilized.
