The Offset Bushings are parts of the Triathlon TS system. They are used during trialing to assess the appropriate magnitude and orientation of offset between the Implant and the intramedullary Stem. The feedback from the Offset Bushing allows for the selection of the corresponding Offset Adaptor, which allows for optimal bone coverage, compensating for differences between the Implant and bone canal axes.
