Spartan Medical expanded its portfolio of single-use, sterile, pre-packaged instruments to include the new SAS Kerrison (Sterile Always-Sharp).
Spartan’s single-use Sterile Always Sharp (SAS) Kerrison has the traditional look and feel of reusable Kerrisons, but without the issue of a dull or deformed cutting surface from continued use and reprocessing.
With its new SAS Kerrison, Spartan Medical is ensuring that the Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense medical communities can rely on high-quality surgical tools. The SAS Kerrison also eliminates the time and expense of reprocessing, and ensures that a sterile instrument is always ready for use, when needed, where needed.
Vince Proffitt, Spartan Medical’s Founder and President, noted that “surgeons understand the risks of dull Kerrisons—but the problem is so commonplace that it has almost become the norm for surgeons to need to ‘twist and pull’ or ‘twist and tear’ rather than being able to rely on perfectly sharp cutting instruments.” Mr. Proffitt added that “Spartan used its ‘target-backward’ mentality to listen to the problems of VA and DoD surgeons in the field and developed a best-in-class solution specifically to meet their needs.”
