All-suture Anchor System Y-Knot RC - Perfect Condition

Y-Knot RC Advanced Self-Punching Anchor System for Effective Rotator Cuff Repairs

The Conmed Y-Knot RC is a self-punching, all-suture anchor system designed to provide strong fixation and a simple insertion technique. This innovative system is particularly suited for rotator cuff repairs, whether routine or revision. With its advanced technology, the Y-Knot RC ensures solid fixation even in soft bone while reducing abrasion and tendon tear-through.

 The Y-Knot RC utilizes FormFit™ fixation technology, which allows for subcortical expansion from 2.8 mm to 5.0 mm, providing strong fixation (575N). This technology eliminates the steps of creating and then finding a pilot hole, commonly seen with PEEK, biocomposite, and other all-suture anchors. This simplification of the procedure saves time and improves the efficiency of surgical interventions.

 Y-Knot RC anchors are designed to provide stronger fixation than traditional 5.5 mm anchors. They deploy subcortically to ensure firm fixation, even in soft bone. This feature is particularly useful in revision cases where space may be limited. The small size of the anchors allows for fixation in a wide range of locations, which is crucial for revision interventions.

The Y-Knot RC system is equipped with the new Hi-Fi™ Tape and Hi-Fi™ Suture, which have been shown to reduce abrasion and tendon tear-through. The Hi-Fi™ Tape is 69% less abrasive than FiberTape when measuring tendon tear-through and provides broader compression than #2 suture for increased tendon-to-bone interface. It is also more than twice as strong as #2 suture. This technology simplifies double-row repairs by eliminating the need for medial knot tying.

 The Y-Knot RC simplifies surgical procedures by eliminating the steps of creating and finding a pilot hole. This simplification saves time and improves the efficiency of surgical interventions. 

 Y-Knot RC anchors are an excellent choice for surgeons concerned with biocompatibility, as they eliminate the possibility of hard loose bodies. Their small size and all-suture construction make them a less invasive implant than PEEK or biocomposite anchors while maintaining fixation strength.

 The Y-Knot RC is ideal for a wide range of clinical applications, including rotator cuff repairs, revision surgical interventions, and diagnostic procedures.
