Are you looking for a way to more effectively remove lipids/marrow elements, blood, and saline from the cement interface? CarboJet’s carbon dioxide (CO2 ) gas jet quickly and thoroughly removes fluid debris from the bone bed resulting in increased cement penetration3,4 and increased cement bond strength5. CarboJet has been shown to be safe and effective in multiple clinical studies and in tens of thousands of joint reconstructive procedures. Nozzles are available for use in TKA, UKA, THA, TSA and other cemented applications. Give it a try and see what a really clean bone bed is all about!
