19. NextEdge Surgical SKU 11-1344-12, Bone Skid / Lever
Repositioning a bone fragment or assisting with joint reduction sometimes requires an
instrument that can slide into a narrow space and then provide controlled leverage. The
NextEdge Surgical 11-1344-12 Bone Skid / Lever is shaped for this type of work, combining a
broad, smooth working surface with a handle designed for manual force application.
The thin blade profile allows the instrument to be introduced into restricted areas where a
thicker lever may be difficult to position. Once placed, the broad surface provides contact for
guiding or repositioning the targeted bone structure.
Its useful characteristics include:
● Smooth blade: The broad working surface provides a controlled interface against the
structure being manipulated.
● Slim profile: The thinner design can facilitate entry into confined spaces.
● Rounded edges: The working margins are shaped for smoother positioning around the
operative site.
● Rigid body: The shaft provides the resistance needed when leverage is applied
manually.
This type of lever can be incorporated into orthopedic and reconstructive trays for selected joint
manipulation, reduction, and bone repositioning procedures. Its value lies in providing the
surgeon with a dedicated mechanical aid rather than relying on a general-purpose instrument.
The 11-1344-12 therefore complements broader bone surgery instruments used for controlled bone manipulation.
