Project Description
VACUUKIT®
Vacuum mixing & injection system for low & medium viscosity bone cements
VACUUKIT® has been designed to contribute to reduction of cement porosity during its preparation by applying vacuum and thereby increase its mechanical stability.
The other interest of vacuum mixing is the reduction of MMA fumes to limit exposure of healthcare professionals.
ADVANTAGES
- CEMENT POROSITY REDUCTION1
- REDUCTION OF EXPOSURE TO MMA FUMES1
- HOMOGENEOUS & REPRODUCIBLE MIXING2
- FAST & CONTROLLED RETROGRADE CEMENT INJECTION2
- NO CEMENT LOSS
- EASY TO USE
(1) Internal Report – Vacuum Mixing FMA07022020
(2) Internal Report – Functional Tests 134/3/EM
VACUUKIT® is intended to mix and inject low and medium viscosity bone cements during arthroplasty procedures.
VACUUKIT® Vacuum mixing & injection system is composed of :
- A cartridge which is used for mixing and injection.
- A base to ensure the stability of the cartridge during the mixing.
- A funnel to properly fill the cartridge with the powder and liquid components.
- A mixer plunger to prepare the bone cement.
- A vacuum tube with filter to apply vacuum during mixing and avoid air bubble entrapment.
- An injection gun for a safe and comfortable injection.
- An injection tube to inject the cement directly into the bone cavity.
