Indications for Arthroscopic Use
The Stryker Crossre 2 system is indicated for use in orthopedic and
arthroscopic procedures for the following joints: knee, shoulder, ankle, elbow,
wrist, and hip. The crossre system provides abrasion, resection, debridement
and removal of bone and soft tissue through its shaver blade; and the ablation
and coagulation of soft tissue, as well as hemostasis of blood vessels, through
its electrosurgical probe. Examples of uses of the prodict include resection
of torn knee cartilage, subcromial decompression, and resection of synovial
tissue in other joints.
Contraindications
The electrosurgical probe should not be used in procedures where a
nonconductive irrigant is used or with patients having cardiac pacemakers or
other electronic implants.
