Suture passers are used in shoulder arthroscopy for rotator cuff , glenoid labrum and Knee repair .
Designed for simplicity, the easy-to-use Fast Pass Scorpion suture passer supports more successful suture passes. The front side of the bottom jaw is solid to prevent suture and soft tissue from entering the bottom jaw when positioning onto the tendon. The suture-retrieving top jaw helps seamlessly pass and retrieve suture.
The labral suture passer has a quick-loading bottom jaw and suture-retrieving top jaw. This intuitive suture passer’s streamlined, low-profile jaws are designed for easily maneuvering the glenohumeral space, fit through a 6 mm cannula, and are ideal for passing and retrieving suture through a single portal.
Product Features:
1. Needle Design:
Suture passers typically have a specialized needle core design that allows for easy penetration through soft tissues, minimizing trauma to surrounding structures.
2. Curvature and Flexibility:
The tools are often designed with a curved or flexible shaft to navigate the tight spaces within the shoulder joint, enabling the surgeon to access and suture hard-to-reach areas.
3. Ergonomic Handle:
The handle is ergonomically designed to provide a comfortable and secure grip for the surgeon, ensuring precise control during suturing maneuvers.
4. Depth Adjustability:
Many suture passers have depth-adjustable features, allowing the surgeon to control the depth of needle penetration based on the specific requirements of the procedure.
5. Suture Retrieval Mechanism:
Suture passers may include a mechanism for retrieving the suture once it has been passed through the tissue. This feature enhances efficiency and reduces the risk of inadvertent needlestick injuries.
