CarboJet® Lavage

CarboJet™ System is indicated for the removal of fluid and particulate debris from bone surfaces for site preparation in orthopaedic surgery. Irrigated, sculpted surfaces may be optimised to receive bone cement applied for extra fixative procedures.

A compressed CO2 gas jet is more effective at removing fluid and fluid-suspended debris from a porous matrix than a liquid cleaning jet. The liquid jet is useful for “washing” of gross debris, but is much less effective at removing fluid debris in the interstices of cancellous bone. The fluid jet works in a porous structure by incremental mixing, dilution and displacement. The compressed gas jet accomplishes fluid- debris removal by creating strong, fluctuating pressure gradients, displacing debris rapidly and more thoroughly.
