Surgical Procedure: The SAFE System ®This document describes the procedure to follow when using the SAFE System for surgery.The SAFE System can be incorporated in all types of <strong>SurgiGuide</strong>. The System can be usedpre-operatively and surgically in a Secure, Accurate, Flexible and Ergonomic way. Followingthese guidelines will improve the surgical results.IntroductionThe SAFE System offers the surgeon a series of tools for Secure, Accurate, Flexible andErgonomic implant placement. Position, angle and depth of drilling as well as implantplacement are guided through the use of SAFE in combination with <strong>SurgiGuide</strong>, resulting inan improved implant position.To have good results in using the SAFE System, several surgical decisions, e.g. plannedimplant length and depth control, have to be taken care of during design and production ofthe <strong>SurgiGuide</strong>. Therefore final decisions are made earlier in the planning process, and thecorrect information should be transferred to the manufacturer of the <strong>SurgiGuide</strong>.For maximum accuracy the surgeon should be in possession of a SAFE Surgical Tray andstorage box, containing different types of reusable components, as well as a starter set ofSAFE System pilot/final drills.It is crucial that the surgeon maintains a complete inventory of components, particularly thedrills, as the SAFE guides are fabricated on the premise that all available components areavailable during surgery. Only by re-ordering components and drills when needed, can thecorrect use of the SAFE System be guaranteed in any situation, maximising the accuracy ofthe SAFE System.SURGICAL PROCEDURES73www.SimPlant.com<strong>SurgiGuide</strong> <strong>Cookbook</strong>
