Distraction Screws, also called Caspar Pins, play a critical and sometimes time-consuming role in the procedural workflow. Phantom CS QuickStart Distraction Screws have been designed to minimize time spent on distraction as they require half the turns of a standard distraction screw to be seated when used in combination with the Phantom CS Distraction Screwdriver, Springless (CS-0114). The tri-fluted distal end design seats the screw in the vertebral body and the dual-threaded screw body accelerates the deployment of the screw and minimizes surgeon wrist strain. When Phantom CS QuickStart Distraction Screws are used in combination with a Phantom CS Locking Distractor, surgical disruptions caused by the distractor riding out of the surgical site are eliminated and seamless distraction can be achieved, delivering institutional savings by minimizing time spent in the operating room. A Phantom CS Locking Distractor must be used to leverage the locking design of the Phantom CS QuickStart Distraction Screw. QuickStart™ Distraction Screws contain dual threading enabling faster deployment saving precious OR time. Equipped with a sharp tip and three cutting flutes, QuickStart Distraction screws achieve bone penetration in half the rotations. These screws are provided sterile and are available in 12, 14- and 16-mm lengths to accommodate diverse patient anatomies.
