ArthroTube®
The ArthroTube® is a dedicated arthroscopic fluid management system designed to provide reliable inflow for joint distension, ensuring consistent visualization during minimally invasive procedures. Its construction emphasizes high flow efficiency, universal compatibility, and intraoperative safety, making it a critical component of modern arthroscopic surgery.
Structural and Functional Features
-
-
High-Diameter Tubing
Manufactured with large internal lumen diameters, the system supports elevated flow rates, enabling stable joint distension and continuous visualization even under demanding surgical conditions. The increased tubing caliber reduces resistance and improves overall fluid dynamics. -
Integrated Flow Control
Each set incorporates a precision inflow clamp positioned within the sterile field, allowing surgeons to modulate flow rates directly and with fine control, without interrupting the procedure. -
Cassette-Free Operation
Unlike previous-generation models, the new ArthroTube® does not rely on a cassette system. This design evolution simplifies setup, reduces preparation steps, and minimizes potential mechanical points of failure while maintaining high reliability. -
Universal Connectivity
The system is compatible with standard arthroscopic inflow sheaths and cannulas, eliminating the need for proprietary connectors or special adapters. This ensures seamless integration into existing operating room setups across multiple arthroscopic platforms. -
Sterile, Single-Use Construction
ArthroTube® is provided sterile and intended for single-use only, reducing cross-contamination risk and ensuring compliance with infection control standards. -
Biocompatible Materials
Manufactured from latex-free, medical-grade polymers, the system reduces the likelihood of hypersensitivity or allergic reactions, ensuring patient safety across diverse surgical populations.
-
Clinical Application
The ArthroTube® Fluid Management System is indicated for use in a wide range of arthroscopic procedures, including knee, shoulder, hip, and ankle surgery. Its high-flow tubing design, intraoperative flow regulation, and universal compatibility provide surgeons with dependable inflow control, improved visualization, and greater efficiency throughout the procedure.
