The hand instruments are generally unpowered, non-disposable, metallic devices that are used as hand tools for the surgery. These include knives, probes, graspers, punches, scissors, scissor punches, dissectors and shears. Each of these tools comes in a variety of configurations and geometries to suit surgeon preference and surgical needs. Because hand instruments are essentially a commodity market, the key differentiating factors are ergonomics and surgeon preference. Arthroscopic instruments are used in arthroscopy, which is used for the visualization, treatment, and diagnosis of joints related problems. Handheld arthroscopic instruments include knives, graspers, probes, scissors, dissectors, punches, scissor punches, and shears. These hand instruments come in a variety of configurations to suit surgeon preference and surgical need.
