“Many surgeons first try LockDown as an alternative to other options and continue to use it because it works, the technique is quick, straightforward, reproducible and consistently delivers reliable results with an extremely low failure rate. Additionally, LockDown is versatile, making it suitable for both acute and chronic cases in one procedure and does not come with the complications commonly associated with other devices or techniques.”

“It is with much enthusiasm I am writing to support the inclusion of the Lockdown Shoulder Stabilisation System within our product basket offering to the South African Market.

The first case was done in October 2013, and now 11 years later we have established the Lockdown as the “go-to” for ACJ dislocations. The straight-forward surgical technique, reproducible results and early patient mobilisation allow an easy return to life, which contribute to its continued success in this competitive market. The strength of the Lockdown, with load to failure of 1730N, makes it the clear leader.

We find that we also have a useful revision market established by failed competitor product surgeries.”
