Fluid Management

GoFlo Pump

Consistent, effective, and efficient flow:

• Self-calibrates continuously to ensure settings are reproducible and reliable.
• Optimizes flow performance through automatic detection of any scope cannula.
• Simple interface, wireless remote, quick, and uncomplicated tube-set connection.

Arthroscopy Cart

Big features in a small footprint:

COBLATION® Technology

WEREWOLFTM COBLATION System

Confident outcomes through control:

• Better clinical outcomes – 88% relative less risk of replacement surgery at four years compared to mechanical debridement.
• Faster post-op recovery – 35% less physical therapy sessions compared to mechanical debridement.
• Safe for use on all tissue types – 88% of lesions showed no progression in second-look arthroscopy study.

COBLATION Wands

Rapid ablation and precise sculpting:

• COBLATION FLOW 50™ Wand (FLOW-IQ Technology): Optimal performance on multiple tissue types with automated outflow control. Efficiently resect targeted tissue while preserving healthy surrounding tissue.
• AMBIENT™ SUPER TURBOVAC 90 Wand: Screen shape and profile provide bulk tissue debridement in the shoulder and knee. Accurate real-time temperature monitoring of the intraarticular fluid.
• AMBIENT MEGAVAC 90 Wand: Mega-sized suction wand with a large, single-aperture suction port. Swift removal of bubbles and debris during shoulder and knee repair.
• AMBIENT HIPVAC 50 Wand: Designed for hip procedures, the wand provides a 50° tip and rigid shaft. Efficient and precise ablation, as well as resection of soft tissue.
• TOPAZ EZ Wand: Designed specifically for soft tissue in the shoulder, elbow, knee, foot, and ankle. Precise surgical technique and single application protocol.
