Linvatec Concept Grafix Graft Prep Instrument Set w/ Tray PS8820 PS8830

Linvatec Concept Grafix Graft Prep System | PS8820 & PS8830

The Linvatec Concept Grafix platform is a foundational system for orthopedic sports medicine, engineered to meet the 2026 requirements for precise soft-tissue and Bone-Tendon-Bone (BTB) graft preparation. This comprehensive set provides a stable, modular workstation for the surgical assistant or scrub technologist to clean, trim, size, and pretension grafts while the surgeon performs the arthroscopic portion of the procedure.

The system is centered around the PS8820 Preparation Table and PS8830 Board, offering a specialized environment for preparing ACL, PCL, and MPFL grafts with surgical-grade accuracy.

Key Performance Features

• Modular Workstation (PS8820/PS8830): The preparation table and board provide a dedicated, secure surface for graft manipulation, preventing accidental contamination or dropping of the tissue.

• Universal Graft Sizing (PS8832): The Grafix Sizing Block features precision-drilled apertures to verify graft diameter, ensuring a perfect "line-to-line" or "press-fit" match with the femoral and tibial tunnels.

• Specialized BTB Management: Includes three PS8826 BTB Holders, specifically designed to secure bone plugs during trimming or when drilling suture holes, minimizing the risk of bone fracture.

• EndoButton Integration (PS8825): A dedicated EndoButton clamp facilitates the efficient loading and looping of cortical fixation devices, a critical step for modern suspensory fixation techniques.

• Advanced Tensioning & Clamping:

  • PS8824 Tension Clamp: Allows for controlled pretensioning of the graft to reduce post-operative "creep" or laxity.

  • PS8822 Graft Clamps: Provides secure, atraumatic grip on soft tissue during suturing (whip-stitching).

• High-Precision Drill Guide (PS8829): Ensures perfectly centered suture holes in bone plugs, maintaining the structural integrity of the graft.

Clinical & Institutional Advantages

• Improved Procedural Flow: By providing a dedicated space and specialized tools for graft prep, the surgical team can work in parallel, significantly reducing the total "tourniquet time" for the patient.

• Increased Graft Security: Specialized clamps and holders reduce the manual handling of the graft, preserving the delicate collagen fibers and vascularity of the tissue.

• Standardized Results: The use of the PS8832 Sizing Block and PS8829 Drill Guide ensures that every graft is prepared to exact specifications, regardless of the assisting staff's experience level.

• Strategic Procurement: Acquiring this "Excellent Condition" complete set allows a facility to equip a new orthopedic suite or upgrade a legacy prep station at a significant reduction in capital cost.

Ideal Applications

• ACL & PCL Reconstruction: Preparation of semitendinosus/gracilis (quad-fold) or patellar tendon grafts.

• Ulnar Collateral Ligament (UCL) Repair: Fine preparation of palmaris longus grafts.

• Total Joint Revision: Management of allograft tissue for structural augmentation.

Condition & Quality Assurance

• Status: Used — Excellent Condition.

• Mechanical Integrity: All slide locks, clamps, and tensioning components have been inspected for smooth articulation and secure locking force. The sizing block apertures are free of burrs or scoring.

• Surface Condition: Surgical-grade stainless steel components show minimal signs of clinical wear and are free of oxidation.

• Note to SPD: This set is provided in a large sterilization tray. It is recommended that the facility perform a complete ultrasonic cleaning and a validated steam autoclave cycle prior to first clinical use.
