Removal shouldn't be the hardest part of a revision.
Next generation ultrasonic system for bone cement removal.
The system features ultrasonic technology and offers multiple tip geometries suitable for hip, knee, and upper extremity applications. The patented probe helix can transform a proportion of the ultrasonic vibration from longitudinal to torsional.
TORS is an ultrasonic surgical device intended to be used for removal of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement in orthopaedic applications.
System overview
• The generator provides two cement channels to allow rapid probe interchange.
• The sterilisable instrument tray consists of transducers, cables and extension bars.
• The single-use handpiece houses the transducer when in use.
• The tips can be provided as single-use or reusable according to requirements.
Plug & Play Generator
- The plug and play generator provides two cement channels to allow for efficient tip interchange during surgery.
- The illuminated display gives clear indications when in use.
- The generator can be activated by either the handpiece or foot pedal.
- The resonant frequency of the connected transducer and tip is continually tracked and adjusted during use. No calibration or set-up required.
Axial Handpiece & Cement Transducer
The sealed, autoclavable transducer contains four lead zirconate titanate piezoelectric crystals which convert high-frequency alternating current to a high-frequency mechanical vibration. TORS operates with a frequency of 36kHz.
A lightweight, single-use, ergonomic outer handpiece with annular switch. A foot pedal is available for alternative activation.
A range of working tips
Piercers – The conical shape of the tip integrates multiple, faceted cement ports designed to work into the cement mantle. The unique 4mm piercer can be used to penetrate high-density polyethylene restrictors.
Scrapers – Textured rear-face, designed to remove cement from the sides of the medullary canal in a retrograde fashion.
Fine Access – A tip range specifically designed to access small and difficult to reach areas.
Extension bars – To allow work in a deeper space, tuned so that there is no loss or gain in displacement. The curved extension bar can assist when working distally in the femur. The supplied spanners (wrenches) allow the tips to be tightened to the end of the transducer.
Audible feedback – If the tip head contacts bone, an audible squeal may occur and provide feedback to the user.
Wrenches
Use the spanners (wrenches) to ensure the ultrasonic vibration passes through the length of the instrument.
