Optimize your orthopedic trauma fixation arsenal with the Smith & Nephew Richards 71123154 Intermediate Compression Hip Screw Plate (145°, 76 mm, 4 Holes, BX/1) — a precision‑engineered implant designed to deliver reliable internal fixation for proximal femoral fractures. Engineered with a 145° neck‑shaft angle, this intermediate compression plate aligns with challenging anatomical variations and fracture patterns that benefit from a more valgus fixation strategy. Part of the trusted Compression Hip Screw (CHS) System by Smith & Nephew, it supports controlled compression and dynamic impaction at the fracture site, which can promote stability and bone healing while minimizing intraoperative complexity.

Crafted from surgical‑grade corrosion‑resistant stainless steel, the 71123154 plate combines strength with a low‑profile lateral design that reduces soft tissue irritation and hardware prominence. The four‑hole intermediate length (76 mm) provides secure cortical fixation with balanced load distribution while the integrated lag screw barrel facilitates guided placement of the lag screw for predictable compression. This combination helps surgeons achieve reliable mechanical fixation for intertrochanteric, subtrochanteric, and other proximal femur fracture patterns using familiar CHS instrumentation.

Individually boxed (BX/1) for sterile inventory management and ease of use in high‑stakes surgical environments, the Smith & Nephew 71123154 Intermediate Compression Hip Screw Plate is ideal for hospitals, trauma centers, and orthopedic specialty practices. Backed by a legacy of clinical performance and comprehensive surgical support from Smith & Nephew’s CHS system, this intermediate plate delivers the precision, durability, and versatility needed to support optimal patient outcomes in hip fracture care.
