Arthroscopic shaver system blade, reprocessed

1,826 devices · GMDN 61800

An arthroscopic shaver system blade reprocessed is a reusable cutting tool used in joint surgeries like knee, shoulder, or ankle procedures. These blades attach to a powered handpiece to precisely resect bone or soft tissue during minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery, reducing recovery time and improving precision compared to traditional open surgery methods.

Reprocessed blades in this category are originally single-use devices that undergo cleaning, sterilization, and inspection to be reused safely for one additional patient. They are regulated as medical devices, typically requiring compliance with reprocessing standards to ensure sterility and functionality before clinical use. Availability may vary by region, and suppliers often provide documentation confirming reprocessing validation.
