Kyphoplasty systems
Tamper
A non-powered, hand-held, surgical instrument designed to transmit impact forces, typically from a hammer/mallet to an orthopaedic implant (e.g., intramedullary nail or stem), to position/drive the implant into the body during impact-based implantation. It commonly includes an impact-absorbing handle with a distal end shaped to conform to the implant (i.e., flat or anatomically curved). This is a reusable device.
