English term or phrase: is mated to the plate drive
Come tradurreste "is mated to the plate drive"?
Forse "plate drive" è un refuso per "plate driver".

"The plate is tamped into the cancellous portion of the bone fragment optionally by tapping the plate driver with a one pound mallet as is necessary to insert the plate. The plate should be driven until the recess or pocket makes contact with the anterior portion of the calcaneus bone. An area may be cleared on the cortical surface of the area of bone that will receive the section with the locking screws. Once the tapered end of the plate is sunk, a drill guide is mated to the plate drive, and a hole is drilled for the locking screw."

neutral  Consuelo Castellari: Secondo me si tratta proprio di un refuso, perché vedo che "plate driver" compare altre volte nel testo e dalla frase precedente si capisce che questa piastra deve essere guidata. Quindi direi "viene accoppiata alla guida della piastra".
