Orthopaedic drivers are hand-held or minimally invasive surgical instruments designed to impart force on other instruments in order to insert orthopaedic implants and prostheses, with a distal end shaped to mate with the instrument being driven and a proximal end designed to absorb and transmit impact force. These devices are used to fix or fasten together bones during orthopaedic surgery.
