DHS Pediatric Plate

DHS Pediatric Plate: Advanced Fixation Solution for Growing Bones

The DHS Pediatric Plate (Dynamic Hip Screw Pediatric Plate) is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for the treatment of proximal femoral fractures, pediatric hip fractures, and corrective osteotomies in children. Since pediatric bones are still growing, they require implants that provide strong fixation while protecting the growth plate (physis).

At Medifit Devices LLP, we manufacture precision-engineered DHS Pediatric Plates that offer excellent mechanical stability, controlled compression, and anatomical fit, ensuring reliable fixation and optimal healing outcomes.

What is a DHS Pediatric Plate?

The DHS (Dynamic Hip Screw) Pediatric Plate is a pediatric-specific internal fixation system used for stabilizing fractures of the proximal femur. It consists of a dynamic hip screw that passes into the femoral head, connected to a side plate fixed along the femoral shaft.

The system allows controlled dynamic compression at the fracture site, which promotes bone healing while maintaining strong mechanical stability. Unlike adult implants, the pediatric version is specially scaled and contoured to suit growing bone anatomy.

Key Feature of DHS Pediatric Plate

  • Pediatric Anatomical Design – Specifically contoured for smaller femoral anatomy

  • Multiple Hole Options – Available in various configurations for surgical flexibility
  • Optimized Barrel Angle – Ensures precise alignment and fixation

  • High-Strength Materials – Medical-grade Stainless Steel / Titanium Alloy
  • Superior Surface Finish – Smooth edges and polished surface for enhanced bio compatibility

Benefits of DHS Pediatric Plate

  1. Stable and Secure Fixation – Provides rigid stabilization of fractures, reducing micro-movement and ensuring proper alignment.
  2. Controlled Compression – The dynamic mechanism allows gradual compression at the fracture site, enhancing union rates.
  3. Faster Healing Support – Encourages natural bone healing while maintaining mechanical stability.
  4. Growth Plate Consideration – Designed to minimize risk to the physis (growth plate), which is critical in pediatric patients.
  5. Early Mobilization – Strong fixation allows earlier rehabilitation and improved functional recovery.

Indications of DHS Pediatric Plate

  • Pediatric intertrochanteric femur fractures
  • Subtrochanteric femur fractures in children
  • Proximal femoral osteotomies
  • Selected pediatric hip deformity corrections
