The Medical AMRC has successfully completed a commission from sports injury, trauma and orthopaedic products specialist Harvard Healthcare to design and develop a range of innovative orthopaedic screwdrivers for use in operating theatres.

The screwdrivers had to retain screws securely until they were anchored in place, offering an easy to use alternative for surgeons who currently employ a variety of devices to retain screws, which tend to be overly complex, difficult to use and hard to manufacture.
