A significant advancement over traditional rigid metal cannulae, the ClearVu 2.7 is the first and only cannula engineered to bend with an articulating joint, allowing it to maintain continuous fluid flow and clarity while significantly reducing the potential for soft tissue and articular surface damage. Its tapered design and polymer construction provide “progressive” flexibility. Combined with its other unique design features, they allow it to:
- Easily conform to contours of the joint no matter how it is articulated during arthroscopy, ensuring maximum fluid flow and clarity.
- Deliver uninterrupted flow and debris evacuation in a much smaller OD (and, therefore, much smaller incision) for consistent visibility.
- Avoid the kind of skiving, scuffing, and denting that can occur with a metal cannula (especially as it is repositioned).
- Remain in place throughout the procedure, since you won’t have to reposition it to restore sufficient fluid flow.
- Allow for more fenestrations at the distal tip so flow is not blocked and evacuation and visibility remain constant, even when the joint is in a figure-four position.
