Arthroscopy Irrigation Tubing: Types, Functions and Configurations
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat joint problems. During arthroscopic surgery, a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the joint, providing the surgeon with real-time images. To enhance visibility and ensure a clear view of the joint, arthroscopy irrigation tubing plays a critical role. This tubing is used to deliver a sterile irrigation solution into the joint, flushing out debris, blood, and other fluids, ensuring that the surgical area remains clear during the procedure.
