Core Knee Arthroscopy Instruments

Arthroscope & Camera

The arthroscope and camera help you see inside the knee. These tools act like your eyes during surgery. The arthroscope is a thin tube with a lens and light. The camera connects to the arthroscope and shows pictures on a screen. This lets you watch the knee as you work.

• You can look at the knee joint.

• You can spot injuries by seeing them.

• You can use your tools more carefully.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has good arthroscopes and cameras. These tools help you make smart choices and fix the knee safely.

Cannulas & Trocars

Cannulas and trocars help you get inside the knee safely. The trocar is sharp and makes the first hole in the tissue. After you make the opening, you put in the cannula. The cannula is a hollow tube that stays in place. It lets you use other tools and helps control fluids.

Cannulas and trocars are important because they:

• Let you use and remove tools without hurting tissue.

• Help keep the area clean by moving fluids.

• Let you check and treat the knee through small cuts.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has many cannulas and trocars for different jobs.

Probes & Hooks

Probes and hooks help you check and move tissue in the knee. You use them to feel cartilage, ligaments, and meniscus. These tools help you find tears or loose pieces. Probes and hooks also let you move tissue gently so you can see better or fix problems.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has strong probes and hooks for careful work.

Graspers & Forceps

Graspers and forceps help you hold, move, and take out tissue. You use them to pick up loose pieces or trim tissue. These tools come in many shapes and sizes for different needs.

• You can grab and move tissue in the joint.

• You can trim or take out tissue.

• You can hold pieces steady for more work.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set gives you many graspers and forceps to pick the best one.

Scissors & Punches

Scissors and punches help you cut and shape tissue in the knee. You use scissors to make neat cuts in soft tissue. Punches help you take out small pieces of cartilage or meniscus. These tools help clean up damaged spots and get the joint ready to fix.

• Arthroscopic scissors have straight or curved blades for different jobs.

• Punches can reach tight spots and take out tissue easily.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has sharp scissors and punches for smooth cutting.

Shavers & Burrs

Shavers and burrs help you clean and shape the knee. You use shavers to take out soft tissue, cartilage, or bone. Burrs are stronger and help shape or remove hard bone. These tools make the joint smooth and ready to heal.

The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has strong shavers and burrs with sharp edges. These tools help you work fast and safely, so patients can heal well.

Tip: Using a full Arthroscopy Instrument Set from XC Medico gives you every tool you need for knee arthroscopy. Each tool is made for careful, safe, and easy use.

Accessory & Support Instruments

Irrigation & Suction

You must see clearly during knee arthroscopy. Irrigation and suction systems help keep the joint clean. Automated irrigation pumps control how much fluid goes in. They also control the pressure. This stops 'red out' and keeps your view clear. Good suction quickly removes blood and debris. Using advanced systems lowers the chance of fluid leaking into other tissues.

This table shows that new irrigation-suction systems keep fluid steady. You get more control and surgery is safer.

Light Source & Fiber Optics

You need bright light to see inside the knee. Light sources and fiber optics send strong light through the arthroscope. This helps you find injuries and work carefully. New systems give you clear pictures and fewer shadows. You can change the light for each part of surgery.

Accessory tools help you hold the leg and knee in place. You might use a Leg Positioning Boot, a Deluxe Arthroscopic Leg Holder System, or an Arthroscopy Knee Holder. These devices keep the leg still and comfortable. An Arthroscopic Stress Post helps you reach the knee joint better.

• Leg Positioning Boot

• Deluxe Arthroscopic Leg Holder System

• Arthroscopy Knee Holder

• Arthroscopic Stress Post

These accessories help you keep the knee in the right spot. You work safer and can see better.

Electrocautery Devices

You use electrocautery devices to stop bleeding. These tools use electricity to close blood vessels. You can cut tissue and stop bleeding at once. This keeps the joint clear and lowers the risk of trouble. Electrocautery devices are simple to use with the Arthroscopy Instrument Set. You get better results and safer surgeries.

Tip: Always check your support instruments before surgery. A good setup helps you work faster and safer.

Specialized Sets for Knee Procedures

When doctors do knee arthroscopy, they sometimes need special sets for certain jobs. These sets help with tough repairs and reconstructions. The XC Medico product range gives you the right tools for each job. You can pick the set that fits your surgery.

ACL/PCL Reconstruction

Doctors use ACL and PCL reconstruction sets to fix or replace torn ligaments. These sets have tools that help you work safely and carefully. The XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set has everything you need for these surgeries.

You also use probes, graspers, scissors, shavers, and suture passers. These tools help you cut, hold, and place grafts gently. Each tool is ready for sterilization, so you keep things safe and clean.

Meniscus Repair

Doctors need a meniscus repair set to fix tears or damage in the meniscus. These sets help you bring back the shape and function of the meniscus. You use them for root repair, all-suture repairs, and shaping the meniscus.

These tools let you work on soft tissue with control. You can fix the meniscus and help your patient get better faster.

Suture Hook Set

Doctors use a suture hook set mostly for meniscal repairs. This tool is great for fixing lateral meniscal injuries, especially in hard-to-reach spots like the back corner and popliteal hiatus. The suture hook lets you pass sutures safely without hurting blood vessels or nerves. You lower the chance of problems and may not need more surgeries. This set makes repairs stronger and helps patients heal better.

Tip: Picking the right special set from the XC Medico range helps you do each knee procedure with skill and confidence.

Sterilization & Setup

Instrument Preparation

You must get your instruments ready before each knee arthroscopy. Clean every tool well and sterilize it to stop infection. Try to use single-use or disposable sets when you can. These sets help lower infection rates. Studies show single-use instruments can cut down surgical site infection (SSI) rates more than reusable ones.

You can see single-use instruments have much lower infection rates. Always look at each tool for damage before you use it. Put your tools in order so you can work fast and safe. Sterilize trays and handles too. This keeps your surgery area clean.

Tip: Getting your XC Medico Arthroscopy Instrument Set ready the right way helps keep patients safe and gives better results.

Safety Protocols

You must follow strict safety rules in the operating room. These steps help keep everything clean and safe for every patient.

• Make sure the room is sterile by checking for germs in the air.

• Wipe all surfaces, even lamps, with oxidizing liquid before surgery.

• Clean the room and keep the temperature between 22℃ and 25℃.

• Keep humidity between 50% and 60%.

• Use good lighting so you can see well during surgery.

• Have fewer people in the room and keep movement low.

You should use surfaces that are easy to clean and pick equipment that helps keep patients safe. Good airflow and air cleaning systems help keep the air fresh. Taking care of patients and using best practices leads to safer surgeries and better results.
