Page 24 P R O D U C T N E W S Easy-to-Use Shoulder Cannula Some cannulas are easy to use, but limit instrument mobility. Others provide mobility, but are hard to use. The new elastomer SportPort from Cannuflow toes the middle ground, providing surgeons with a flexible port that passes curved instruments with ease for improved access to the shoulder joint through the same-size incision as a standard smooth cannula. The device lets surgeons perform the preferred switching stick "railroading" technique, features a unique fluid side port and forms a fluid-tight seal around instruments to prevent squirting. Eliminate Cross-Contamination in Comfort The Suctioner from Flagship Medical is a latexfree, anti-microbial, disposable mat that collects fluid waste and helps reduce cross-contamination risks. Its quiet but effective high-suction vacuum keeps floors dry during cases, contributing to a cleaner and safer work environment while allowing for easier clean-up and faster room turnovers. The mat quickly and easily attaches to the OR's main suction source, and its non-slip ergonomic cushioning promotes surgeon and staff comfort by reducing the strain and stress of standing for hours on end during busy days.
