Small Fragment Plates Manufacturer - Small Fragment LC-DCP Plate by GPC Medical

A dynamic compression plate (DCP) is a metallic plate used in orthopedics for internal fixation of bone, typically after fractures. As the name implies, it is designed to exert dynamic pressure between the bone fragments to be transfixed. Dynamic compression is achieved either by attaching a tension device to a plate or by using a special dynamic compression plate.

LCDCP or LC-DCP stands for Limited contact dynamic compression plate. It is a dynamic compression plate with limited contact to the underlying bone which supposedly minimizes disruption in periosteal capillary network and thus in the fracture zone. Also, it should have more uniform bending characters than ordinary DCP (dynamic compression plate) due to less inclination to bend in the area of holes in the plate. Conclusively, limited contact keeps the bone healing progression faster than other compression plate. Since it excludes some part of bone-bone contact that leds to early healing, but however the part under the plate requires sometimes to heal completely so weight bearing is contraindicated for 6–8 weeks or more.
