Surgical saw blade, sagittal, reprocessed

Surgical sagittal saw blades are reusable cutting instruments designed for orthopaedic or oral surgery, where they attach to powered saws to precisely cut bone or tissue. Their serrated edge and forward-facing teeth enable controlled, rapid side-to-side (sagittal) motion, often with oscillation, to achieve clean incisions during procedures like bone resection or joint surgery.

These blades are reprocessed for single-use after initial use, meaning they undergo cleaning, sterilization, and inspection before being made available again for patient treatment. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but reprocessed single-use devices typically require compliance with sterilization standards and traceability to ensure safety and performance consistency for subsequent uses.
