Traction Stabilisation System

OrthoTrax

Smarter Stabilisation. Better Trauma Care.

Developing innovative trauma solutions designed to simplify emergency care and support safer patient transport.

In development

In trauma care, every minute matters.

Effective fracture stabilisation is one of the first and most important steps in reducing pain, preventing further injury and supporting safe patient transport. Emergency responders need equipment that is reliable, portable and simple to use, particularly in demanding prehospital environments where time and resources are limited.

OrthoTrax is Acrrnovation's innovative lower-limb traction stabilisation system, developed to simplify emergency fracture management through a practical, adaptable and portable design.

Inspired by real-world clinical challenges, it combines a lightweight extendable stainless-steel construction with an integrated traction mechanism, creating a compact solution designed for modern emergency care.

Because practical innovation saves valuable time.

Why We Built It

Why We Built OrthoTrax

The inspiration behind OrthoTrax came from years of working in emergency medicine. Existing traction devices have transformed trauma care, but many require multiple sizes, occupy valuable storage space or can be cumbersome to transport and deploy in the field.

We believed there was an opportunity to rethink the design.

Our objective was to create a single, adaptable system capable of supporting a broad range of patients while remaining lightweight, durable and simple to use in both hospital and prehospital environments.

The result is a device focused on portability, versatility and practical clinical application.

Our Vision

Trauma equipment designed around frontline realities

We believe trauma care equipment should be designed around the realities of frontline medicine.

OrthoTrax is being developed to support emergency responders, hospitals and healthcare providers by offering a compact and adaptable solution for lower-limb trauma stabilisation.

To make high-quality trauma care equipment more practical, accessible and easier to deploy wherever patients require emergency care.

Designed Around Emergency Care

Every aspect of the design was guided by one simple question:

Will this help emergency teams stabilise patients more efficiently and with greater confidence?

If the answer was no, the design evolved.

The result is an innovation focused on simplicity, reliability and ease of deployment.

Key Design Principles

Built around real clinical needs

Universal Adaptability

An extendable design developed to accommodate a wide range of patient sizes, reducing the need for multiple device variants.

Integrated Traction System

Designed to provide controlled traction and counter-traction through a simple, streamlined mechanism that supports efficient deployment.

Stainless-Steel Construction

Engineered using durable stainless steel to provide strength, longevity and dependable performance in demanding clinical environments.

Portable & Space Efficient

A compact single-rod design that is easy to transport, store and rapidly deploy in ambulances, emergency departments and disaster response settings.

Clinician Inspired

Developed from frontline clinical experience to address practical challenges encountered during trauma care.

Potential Applications

Built for a wide range of settings

OrthoTrax is being developed to support healthcare professionals involved in the emergency management and transport of patients with lower-limb trauma. Its adaptable design is intended for use across a variety of clinical environments, including:

Final clinical indications will be determined following ongoing development, validation and applicable regulatory approvals.

Development Journey

Progressing through evaluation and refinement

OrthoTrax continues to progress through engineering refinement, prototype evaluation and clinical development. Every stage of the project has focused on creating a practical, durable and adaptable solution that supports emergency teams while simplifying trauma stabilisation in the field.

Our objective remains unchanged:

To develop practical innovations that improve emergency care where every second counts.

Looking Ahead

Trauma care continues to evolve through better equipment, improved training and thoughtful innovation. OrthoTrax reflects Acrrnovation's commitment to developing solutions inspired by frontline clinical experience — solutions that prioritise simplicity, portability and usability without compromising purpose.

Because the best innovations are the ones clinicians can rely on when it matters most.
