PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Overview of the VERSAJET™ Hydrosurgery System
The VERSAJET™ Hydrosurgery System utilizes a small fluidjet to create a surgical instrument that combines the benefits of
sharp debridement and pulsed lavage. The high-pressure fluidjet is aimed directly into an open tube called the evacuation
tube. The unique design of the evacuation tube and its proximity to the fluidjet creates a localized vacuum that efficiently
removes debris, tissue, or fluids. By simply placing the instrument tip near a piece of debris, it can easily be removed from
the wound via the inherent vacuum of the fluidjet. However, the fluidjet itself is designed to provide sufficient pressure to cut
through human tissues such as skin, muscle, and cartilage. Thus, by moving the fluidjet into contact with compromised tissue,
the fluidjet will easily cut tissue and suction it away from the wound.
The VERSAJET™ Hydrosurgery System allows a surgeon to select the operating technique that meets the patient’s surgical
needs for wound debridement, including foreign material removal, tissue excision, and wound site shaping.
System Components
The VERSAJET™ Hydrosurgery System contains three basic components: the Disposable Handpiece Assembly, the Power
Console, and the Foot Switch. The handpiece assembly consists of the Handpiece itself, a Pump Cartridge, and hoses. The
Pump Cartridge mounts onto a clamp assembly on the front of the Power Console; this connection provides the power to the
Disposable Handpiece Assembly. The Foot Switch provides remote actuation of the Power Console.
The system is designed to work with any Disposable VERSAJET™ Handpiece Assembly.
