ORTHOSYN SUTURE PASSER are single use instruments packaged sterile. Each type has various curved tip configurations for arthroscopic Bankart, SLAP & rotator cuff repairs. ORTHOSYN SUTURE PASSER has a 2.3 mm outer diameter tip and comes preloaded with a nitinol wire loop of suture used to shuttle suture through soft tissue. ORTHOSYN SUTURE PASSER can also be loaded with a monofilament suture for shuttling or with #2 Fiber suture to pass a stitch when using the ORTHOSYN MRY KNOTLESS ANCHORS eliminating the shuttle step.
The sharp tip and small diameter shaft will easily penetrate soft tissue while the reinforced shaft resists bending. After the tip is passed through soft tissue, the loop is deployed and retrieved through a cannula with a Crochet Hook or Suture Retriever. A suture strand or suture tail from a previously placed suture anchor is placed in the loop, and the opposite end of the loop is pulled, delivering the suture through tissue and out the cannula.
