Welcome...to the 2006 edition of the <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong>catalogue. The new colour format seems to have beenwell received and remains unchanged for 2006.As usual we have added many new products which arelisted below for easy reference.The cover illustrates the Triple Tibial Osteotomy procedure for the management ofCranial Cruciate disease.Another year has gone by without us getting any closer to a definitive repair technique. Ingeneral practice if you have a technique which works for you then I would advise that youstick with it! This is particularly true in cases of genuine traumatic rupture where outcomesare usually better than cases of degenerative cruciate disease. However in more specialisedcentres it appears that some form of procedure which alters the geometry of the stifle <strong>joint</strong>is becoming more popular. We now have Tibial Plateau Levelling (TPLO, by radialosteotomy or wedge osteotomy), Tibial Tubercle Advancement (TTA) and a combination ofthe two, Triple Tibial Osteotomyy (TTO). The TTO method is worth a look in that it doesappear to address some of the failings of other systems and does not require a largeinvestment in machinery.John Lapish BSc., BVetMed.,MRCVS.Managing DirectorIn 2003 John was awarded the BSAVA‘Simon Award’ in recognition ofthe welfare benefits of the range ofinstruments he has developed for use insmall animal <strong>surgery</strong>.<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> is happy to support whichever procedure you favour with bothinstruments and implants.Best regards…..New items for 2006BSAVA Simon AwardCCL Tensioner PPg 10316LVM Slocum Places PPg 14Cat Size Lowman Clamp PPg 31Hybrid T Plates PPg 92Soft Tissue Biopsy Forceps PPg 111CCL Loop Tightener . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 10Hybrid wedge osteotomy plates . . . . . . . .Pg 12Triple Tibial Osteotomy . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 13Cadmus TPLO Plates . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 14Slocum Style TPLO Plates . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 14TPLO Centering Template . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 14Meniscus Probes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 15Halstead toothed(small meniscus clamp) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 15Arthroscopy USB Image Capture . . . . . .Pg 25Small Curved SerratedReduction Forceps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .Pg 30Cat Size Lowman Bone Clamp . . . . . . . . .Pg 31Side Cutting Wire Cutter T.C. . . . . . . . . .Pg 31Wire Tightener with two cranks . . . . . . .

The Company<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> was founded by John Lapish BSc., BVetMed.,MRCVS. in 1986. Working in Sheffield as a small animal orthopaedicsurgeon John was frustrated by the lack of appropriate instrumentation forveterinary surgical procedures. Most of the available instruments at thattime were simply the smaller variants of products designed for use inhuman <strong>surgery</strong>. Living in Sheffield, centre of the UK Surgical Trades, Johnwas ideally placed to try and develop one or two ideas of his own. So,working with skilled local instrument makers, John began to develop arange of instruments (initially for his own use) designed specifically forveterinary <strong>surgery</strong>. Requests for these products and suggestions for newitems began to trickle in from colleagues and this reinforced the conclusionthat a need existed for a specialist instrumentation service to meet theneeds of the profession, and small animal orthopaedics in particular.Today the <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> range of implants and instrumentsincludes over 3000 items which are stocked for immediate despatch.Innovation remains a key part of our activity and John works with leadingveterinary specialists from all over the world to turn new ideas into practicalworking instruments.Our products have the professional backup of veterinary and nursingpersonnel to advise on the selection and use of both instruments andimplants. We are always happy to discuss any aspect of instrumentationand can help locate almost any item.Today the technology involved in producing our products ranges from thetraditional skills of Sheffield craftsman Len Richardson, (an instrumentmaker with over 55 years experience who helped develop the first items inthe range including the excision arthroplasty rasp and the trochlea rasp) tothe ultra-modern. Len uses his extensive experience and hand-eye coordinationto create runs of 100 identical instruments. He continues to helpdevelop new items and oversees our instrument repair service. By contrastat the other end of the spectrum, all our implants are made by state of theart computer controlled machinery designed to meet the same exactingspecifications as their human equivalents. We think we benefit from thebest of both worlds, old and new.4

1 JOINT SURGERYMini Hohman 6mm & 8mm short tipJoint SurgeryCurved Graft PasserManipulation of small bone fragments during repair requires carefulretraction of soft tissues to minimise devascularisation. The blade of theHohman retracts the soft tissue as the tip effectively elevates and exposesthe bone fragment.Exact anatomical repair of the bones will not result in satisfactory healingwithout adequate blood supply.Mini Hohmans allow delicate, precise retraction of the vital soft tissues,allowing placement of screws or wires.An assistant to hold these instruments is a distinct advantage.MINI HOHMAN 6mm and 8mm short tip001047 Mini Hohman Retractor 6mm Short Tip £33.99001048 Mini Hohman Retractor 8mm Short Tip £33.99Straight Graft PasserDesigned to pass through a 2.7 mm hole, the straight graft passer is usefulfor pulling graft and nylon through bone tunnels.STRAIGHT GRAFT PASSER001050 Straight Graft Passer £33.99Bennett Type Graft Passer & Aneurism NeedlesThe sharp tip of the angled graft passer is passed around the fabella byrotaing the wrist.

This design of graft passer has been developed over many years to:1. minimise damage to intra - articular structures2. to feel right in use. The handle is comfortable3. for graft insertion anterior to posterior or vice versa.This design is used by most recognised orthopaedic surgeons.

www.vetinst.comJOINT SURGERY 1Cranial CruciateLigament Lateral SutureSysteminfoWHICH SUTURE?(Approx)STRENGTH50lb80lb100lb100lb x 2These are guidelines onlyWEIGHT10 - 15kg15 - 20kg20+kg40kgThe use of monofilament nylon as a lateral suture is accepted as a method ofrepair of the cranial cruciate ligament. (CCL). Heavy gauge monofilamentnylon (100lb, 80lb and 50lb breaking strain) is difficult to tie without makinga large knot, which tends to stretch and irritate the soft tissues causing painand seromas. In addition it is difficult to sterilise. Autoclaving reduces thestrength and increases the elasticity of nylon. <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong>'sLateral Suture System uses nylon sterilized by Ethylene Oxide together witha crimp tube, a method of joining the nylon already well established in otherindustries. For procedure details see www.k9ccl.com or request our freeCD rom. ‘Surgical Management of Canine Cranial Cruciate Disease’Some CCL deficient patients benefit from the use of double sutures. This isparticularly true of very large dogs and 100lb line. Passing a second needlebehind the fabella risks damaging both the first line and the peri-fabellarstructures which ultimately will hold the nylon sutures. Double line, swagedon sutures allows the placement of two lines with one pass of the needle.Available as single sterile pack. The double line is available swaged on as aloop without crimps and will, therefore, be of interest to those surgeonsusing the self-locking McKee/Miller knot (VCOT 1999;12:78-80).CRANIAL CRUCIATE LIGAMENT LATERAL SUTURE SYSTEMCDROM Surgical Management of Canine CCL disease- covers OTT, Lateral suture & TPLO FOCKits091154 - Basic Kitfabella(cruciate) needlesActual SizeKITS091154 CCL Suture System (Swaged on) Basic Kit.Forceps, 2 x each size nylon/needle/crimpsterile packs £112.00091151 CCL Suture System (Swaged on) Basic Kit Plus.Forceps, 2 x each size nylon/needle/crimp sterile packsplus H/D needleholders £132.00091152 CCL Suture System Starter Kit.

1 JOINT SURGERYLoop Tension DevicesJoint SurgeryCrimping ForcepsPrior to crimping it is suggested that the loop be tensioned sufficiently toeliminate the anterior draw, but not enough to create an outward rotation.This may be achieved by a number of methods:a) Partial crimp - see video, does not require additional instrumentationb) Simple tension device requiring a pair of gelpis 091132c) A dedicated loop tensioner 091132ACCL Tensioning Device091132 - Tensioning Device(gelpis not included)Dedicated crimping forceps are required to avoid over-crimping orunder-crimping, both of which will lead to early implant failure.CRIMPING FORCEPS091135 Crimping Forceps £95.00Bone Tunnel BorerCCL LOOP TENSIONER091132 CCL Tensioning Device (pair - gelpis not included) £39.00CCL Loop TensioningBone tunnels are required in many procedures, e.g. tension wire banding,hip toggling and embrocation techniques.

It is claimed that following TPLO, degenerative <strong>joint</strong> diseasechanges are minimal compared with other CCL procedures. These platesare widely used to repair the tibia following removal of the bone wedge. Theshaft holes are compression. The holes in the head are round but large togive a good range of screw angulation. Particularly useful in large dogs anddogs with tibial plateau deformation. See page 212 for TPLO plate profiles.Our free CD rom illustrates and describes the technique.WEDGE ANGLE FINDER OVERLAY - FREEA simple acetate overlay to help you calculate the tibial plateau angle, fromwhich you can easily calculate the size of the wedge to remove. Includeslines to indicate the normal tibial plateau angle and a 5 degree line which isregarded as the most appropriate post-op angle. Also included on theacetate are actual size outlines of our range of TPLO plates to help youselect the most appropriate plate. See page 212 for actual size profiles.See our website www.k9tplo.com for further info &a step by step guide to the procedure.Wedge Osteotomy Gauge Set 9 degrees to 23 degreesThe wedge gauges simplify the marking andcutting of the appropriate wedge.The parallel marks on each gauge allowthe surgeon to mark and cuta wedge having equalborders proximallyand distally.With both borders the same lengththe resulting closure is better, bothfunctionally and cosmetically.WEDGE OSTEOTOMY GAUGE SET - 9 degrees to 23 degrees001493 Wedge osteotomy gauge set £76.50TIBIAL PLATEAU LEVELLING OPERATION BY WEDGE OSTEOTOMYCDROMSurgical Management of Canine CCL disease- covers OTT, Lateral suture & TPLO FOCTPLO202026 2.0mm DCP 26mm overall length £18.00TPLO272739 2.7mm DCP 39mm overall length £25.63TPLO273539TPLO2735452.7/3.5 DCP 39mm overall lengthAllows use of 3.5 cancellous screw in head £25.632.7/3.5 DCP 45mm overall length2.5mm thick - NEW for 2006 £29.00TPLO353555 3.5mm DCP 55mm overall length £36.90TPLO353557 3.5mm DCP 57mm overall length Heavy Duty £36.90TPLO353577 3.5mm DCP 77mm overall length £36.90TPLO353579 3.5mm DCP 79mm overall length Heavy Duty £38.95TPLO3545793.5/4.5 DCP 79mm overall length Heavy DutyAllows 4.5 screws in head £38.95TPLO 4.5m DCP 90mm overall length45659030 Will accept 6.5 cancellous screws in head3.0mm thick £75.00TPLO 4.5mm DCP 90mm overall length45659045 Will accept 6.5 cancellous screws in head4.5mm thick £75.00TPLOO Angle Finder & Plate Overlay F.O.C.Bone ScribeA very sharp marking point with an easy to hold handle enables the surgeonto mark bone prior to cutting or rotating (Slocum procedure).BONE SCRIBE001494 Bone scribe £12.5012


www.vetinst.comJOINT SURGERY 1Triple Tibial OsteotomyA new cruciate managementtechnique combining tibialplateau levelling and tibialtubercle advancement.Triple Tibial OsteotomySome instrumentation is required to make the procedure easier and tominimise errors. The set comprises a saw guide, measuring/marking gauge(osteometer) and a bone manipulation device (wedgie). The saw guideworks with flat oscillating blades with a maximum cut thickness of 1mm(thickness at the teeth). See Chapter 5.FREE INSTRUCTIONAL DVDPhone 0845 130 9596 or email info@vetinst.comBased on the work of Slocum, Tepic and Montavon, the Triple TibialOsteotomy has been developed by Dr Warrick Bruce to overcome some ofthe problems encountered in the Slocum TPLO technique, the MontavonTTA (Tibial Tubercle Advancement) and the closing wedge TPLOtechnique.The technique uses the well established range of closing wedgeosteotomy plates.Triple Tibial Osteotomy90ºSome of the problems include.Work by Tepic suggests that the tibial plateau should be perpendicular tothe patella ligament to minimise shear strain at the CrCL. The Slocumtechnique does not always address this issue.The bi-radial Slocum blade is inefficient and difficult to resharpen resultingin the generation of significant amounts of heat which leads to delayedhealing and other complications.The Montavon TTA technique creates a large defect in the cranial tibiawhich requires an expensive titanium cage and plate to prevent collapseduring the healing phase.The closing wedge TPLO shortens the tibia and creates a defect in the tibiawhich has to be protected from the pull of the straight patella ligament by afigure of eight wire.Osteometer and Saw guideThe TTO technique deals with all of these problems.A long osteotomy is made in the tibial crest to allow the tibial tubercle tomove forward.

2 ARTHROSCOPYIntroductionUsing fibre optics the arthroscope is able to deliver light and obtain animage from within the <strong>joint</strong> thus obviating the need for an extensive surgicalapproach and keeping surgical trauma to soft tissues at a minimum.However, arthroscopy is not a risk free procedure as it involves placingsharp metal objects into the <strong>joint</strong> space.ArthroscopyAlthough arthroscopy may be considered expensive in terms of both thededicated instrumentation required and the time and money involved intraining, it is recommended that sufficient resources are allocated topurchase good quality equipment at the outset. (Equipment failures beingvery frustrating and ultimately very expensive.)Dr Fritz, a veterinary surgeon himself, has worked closely with leadingauthorities in the field of veterinary arthroscopy (e.g. Van Bree, Van Ryssenand Lehman) to develop a range of arthroscopic instruments with ourpatients in mind.ArthroscopesAn arthroscope is a rigid endoscope consisting of a system of lenses, whichcollects and transmits an image from the tip of the instrument along theshaft to an eyepiece or camera. A light post close to the eyepiece allowslight to be passed into the shaft and down optic fibres surrounding the lenssystem to illuminate the subject area at the tip. An arthroscope may bedefined using four different parameters, 1) diameter, 2) viewing angle,3) field of view and 4) working length. Arthroscopes for small animal useare available in three diameters.The diameter refers to the outside diameter of the unsheathed shaft of thetelescope. Three sizes are commonly used in small animal arthoscopy:2.7mm, 2.4mm and 1.9mm. Arthroscope technology has improved somuch that optically the new 2.4mm arthroscope is as good as the older2.7mm version. For this reason we now only offer 2.4mm and 1.9mmarthroscopes. Patient size and the <strong>joint</strong> to be investigated will dictateselection of the arthroscope. The 2.4mm arthroscope is fine for mostprocedures but can prove a little large in small elbows. As the diameter ofthe arthroscope becomes smaller, there is less space for optical fibres,which has implications for light transmission and image size. Recentimprovements in construction such as the use of rod lens systems asopposed to optic fibres has improved the performance of the smallerarthroscopes. Additionally the smaller arthroscopes are fragile and caremust therefore be exercised to avoid damage in use, cleaning and storage.The viewing angle is the angle between the lens face and a line drawn atright angles to the long axis of the arthroscope (see above right).A 0º scope views straight ahead from the front of the lens, while a 90ºscope sees an image at right angles to the long axis of the scope. Mostveterinary arthroscopes have a viewing angle of 30º, which is a compromisebetween field of view and distortion. The user needs to be aware whichway the lens is pointing. The light post is used as a reference point and ispositioned opposite the angle of view. Rotating the scope along its long axiswill allow the surgeon to view a large area within the <strong>joint</strong> with minimalrepositioning. An oblique viewing angle does offer the surgeon a limitedability to see ‘around corners’.Each arthroscope will require a dedicated sheath, which protects thearthroscope as well as delivering fluid to the tip. Sheaths offering a highrate of flow are preferable. The sheath reduces the effective working lengthof the 1.9mm scope to approx 8.0cm. Conversely, the sheath will increasethe working diameter of the arthroscope. 1.9mm becomes 2.8mm.Each sheath has a dedicated trochar which, when inserted in place of thearthroscope prevents blocking of the sheath and is used to create a viewingportal into the <strong>joint</strong>. Sheaths are supplied with both blunt and sharptrochars. Care should be exercised using the sharp trochar whenapproaching articular surfaces.Large image technology means the image virtually fills the monitor screen.Exposure control of endoscopic video cameras is much easier, even with a1.9 mm diameter telescope! All scopes are available in soakable andautoclaveable versions. Autoclaving, especially fine scopes willsignificantly reduce the working life of the instrument. We advise use ofthe soakable versions.Standard Arthroscope, 2.4 mmwith arthroscopic sheathFor elbow, shoulder and knee <strong>joint</strong>.T140-2430 Wide angle telescope, 30˚, OD:2.4mm,WL: 14cm, large image technology,standard light cable connectors. soakable £1393.67T141-2430 Wide angle telescope, 30˚, OD:2.4mm,WL: 14cm, large image technology,standard light cable connectors. autoclavable £1572.73S140-2431 Sheath for arthroscopy, OD:3.8mm, WL: 12cmcompatible with T140-2430 and T141-2430, stopcock,including blunt & sharp trocar - high flow version £182.8620

The instruments used must be small and be introduced eitherdirectly through the periarticular soft tissues or via a dedicated cannula.Where serial insertions and withdrawals or a range of instruments arerequired, particularly through multiple layers of soft tissue, a cannula ispreferable to minimize trauma, (trying to re-find a portal can befrustrating). Sets of cannulae dedicated to the most common <strong>joint</strong>s are nowavailable. Initially a small diameter cannula is inserted using a trochar, theportal may then be enlarged by the use of a ‘switching stick’. The stick isinserted into the <strong>joint</strong> through the small cannula which is then withdrawn.Larger cannulae may be slid down the changing stick and introduced intothe <strong>joint</strong>. Exchanging a small cannula for a larger one can be surprisinglydifficult without such an aid. The system is colour coded for ease of use.I-18-518Intra Articular Hand InstrumentsAR-17-06Egress cannula, with sharp trocar stopcock,ID:3mm, WL:7mm £86.99AR-17-00AR-17-00 Handle for interchangeable hand instruments £37.39Hand instruments for investigation are designed to move or retract intraarticular structures and usually take the form of blunt probes or graspingforceps.

Due to the dense muscle mass inshoulder <strong>joint</strong>s, creating a puncture for a working cannula is often quitedifficult. If a clean puncture allowing access directly to the <strong>joint</strong> is notachieved the first time, the risk of a subsynovial oedema increases greatly,thus decreasing the time frame to complete the <strong>surgery</strong> with each failedpuncture. The shoulder puncture system has been specifically designed tohelp eliminate this risk. The system allows you to align your arthroscopeaccurately in the <strong>joint</strong> space. Simply attach the puncture system to thearthroscopic sheaths and maintain your arthroscopic vision in a paralleldirection to the shoulder <strong>joint</strong> rim.

FOCLight Sources& CablesHalogen light sources are inexpensive but not as good as the xenon basedsystems, which are, unfortunately, significantly more expensive to purchaseand maintain. Xenon light sources have a higher intensity and are essentialif the unit is to be used for laparoscopic work. Thus xenon is preferable buthalogen can be used successfully in most <strong>joint</strong> investigations. Both xenonand halogen bulbs have a limited life (xenon typically 500 hours, halogentypically 2000 hours) and bulb failure is at best embarrassing so alwayscarry a spare. The light cable carries light from the source to thearthroscope by fibre optics. Each cable has dedicated connectors to couplewith the light source and the arthroscope. Connections on both light sourceand arthroscope vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. Converters areavailable for both light source and arthroscope but it is wise, if possible, topurchase the appropriate cable for the system.H150-5-2 Halogen light source 150WArthroscopy23H150-5-2 Halogen light source 150W £648.92

However,practicality and the issue of contamination dictate that a camera system isan essential part of the equipment. Arthroscopic cameras work in a verysimilar fashion to video cameras in common usage. The image at theeyepiece of the arthroscope is focussed on a light responsive electronicchip(s). The signal created is transferred to a camera controller, whichprocesses the image into a signal recognized by the monitor and/orrecording system.Most veterinary cameras have a single chip, which is sufficient for mostusers.The connection of the camera head to the eyepiece of the arthroscope isalso variable. To maximise the choice and longevity of the instrumentation itis advised that a clip on camera head compatible with DIN standardeyepieces be selected. The camera heads are fully immersible.Eco Camera761-113V 1/2" CCD Video Camera £2375.3324Professional monitors offer a better image than domestic screens as theyhave a better resolution. Some pre-owned units are always available. Ringfor details.RecordingGood practice dictates that a record is made of any arthroscopicprocedure. Subsequent investigations can be compared to earlier ones andimages can be shared and compared with colleagues or tutors as part of atraining programme. Domestic video recorders will create a permanentrecord of a procedure. However the data is relatively crude and difficult tomanipulate . Still video printers capture an image from a video streamwhich can then be printed onto photographic paper.Digital video and data storage technology now allows the surgeon to recordand store very large amounts of data in a digital format. The digitalinformation can subsequently be manipulated by appropriate computersoftware to create both still and moving images in a variety of formats forstorage or display. If clinical presentations are anticipated then a digitalsystem is very desirable. Domestic DVD or combined DVD/Hard driverecorders offer huge storage capacities at reasonable prices.The data is stored as Digital Video (DV) which can be converted into manyother formats. The major arthroscopy companies offer sophisticated datastorage systems which are able to capture and store still and movie files viasterile touch screens or camera finger controls. Permanent records aremaintained on DVD discs or computer hard drives.We usually have some pre-owned Sony video printers in stock.Ring for details.

The <strong>joint</strong> must beexpanded and debris removed to maintain a clear field of view.To maintain an appropriate intra-articular pressure (between 40 and100mm of mercury) (0.053 and 0.133 BAR) fluid inflow and outflow mustbe carefully regulated. Fluid under pressure may be obtained by eithergravity feed systems or a pump. Gravity may be sufficient provided the fluidbags can be lifted high enough but greater, more controllable pressure maybe obtained by use of a fluid compression bag.The bag of fluid to be infused is placed into a pressure bag, which isinflated using a hand or machine pump. Without careful monitoring handinflation systems offer erratic pressure levels and use of a regulated pumpoffers much better control. A carbon dioxide powered pump may be usedto pressurize a compression bag or infuse carbon dioxide directly into the<strong>joint</strong>. Dedicated roller type pumps are able to maintain a constant linepressure over extended periods but they may require dedicated tubing, areexpensive to purchase and are more prone to breakdown.LLM-1258AR-10-9X-180-26X-5-15-10LLM-1250DE-10-181Spare Luer-Lock connector, male,comp. to silicon tubes 7x2 mm £5.46Spare needle for infusion bottles/bags, ID: 5.5 mm,comp. to silicon tubes (7x2 mm) £21.55Silicon tube, ID: 5 mm, 180 cm, LLm both ends,autoclavable £18.14Spare silicon tube, 1 m, autoclavable,size: 5x1,5 mm, colour: nature £3.88Spare Luer-Lock connector (m), comp.to silicon tubes (5x1,5mm) £4.99Infusion set, disposable, WL: 180 cm,large diameter, box w. 50 pcs £88.22Pressure Pump InfusorTo create fluid flow through the <strong>joint</strong>, appropriate fluid outflow or egressmust be maintained.

In the larger <strong>joint</strong>s (shoulder,stifle) where greater volumes of fluid are involved, dedicated multifenestrated egress cannulae may be necessary, the waste fluid may becollected by either bag systems or suction devices.Use of direct CO2 infusion is indicated in some inflamed <strong>joint</strong>s whereinflammatory synovial villae obstruct the visual field, the villae beingflattened under gas pressure rather than floating free in infused fluid. Inaddition, use of CO2 increases the field of view and image clarity of thearthroscope. CO2 is usually used intermittently with fluid to allow forflushing.25Features:• automatic control • pressure continously adjustable• max. 300mm Hg pressure • easy handling• no mechanical parts • for fluid and CO2 supplyAR-10-100Pneumatic pressure infusor, for infusion cuffs,for veterinary arthroscopy, complete 4 mmtube to central pressure supply, DIN tubeconnection, front side Luer-Lock (f),universal table fixator, easy pressure setting,automatic regulation (0-300mmHg) £711.49Arthroscopy

Long, fine insulated probes areavailable which may be powered by standard surgical electrocautery units.The tips are bathed in fluid at all times but essentially the same processesoccur at the tissue level as in surgical electro<strong>surgery</strong>.Radiofrequency devices create heat by inter-molecular friction. Tips areavailable in both monopolar and bipolar formats and may be used todebride structures such as damaged meniscus or fat pad. Capsularshrinkage by radiofrequency may be used to tighten <strong>joint</strong> capsules followingarthroscopy or injury. Radiofrequency ablation dissolves intra-articulartissues at a relatively low temperature. The resulting debris is removed bysuction. The technique is therefore an alternative to the shaver for removingsoft tissues. At least one manufacturer supplies combined shaver bladesand ablator wands which offer both options on the same intra-articulardevice.Positioning AidsManipulation of arthroscopes and instrumentation inside a <strong>joint</strong> via animage on a monitor screen can be very demanding. Careful positioning ofthe patient and the surgeon is essential.An operating table, fully adjustable for height and tilt is a prerequisite forgood arthroscopy. Once fully draped, orientation around a canine limb canbe difficult. Full use should be made of channels, ties and sand bags to fixthe overall position of the dog. Sandbags may also be necessary to act as afulcrum to open a <strong>joint</strong> maximally for investigation. e.g., elbow.To provide multiple fixed positioning during an investigation a multi armpositioning device is available which when attached between the distal limband the table may be locked into an infinite range of positions. An optionalaccessory allows the stifle to be accurately positioned for an investigation.Virtually the only powered instrument in use in <strong>Veterinary</strong> arthroscopy isthe shaver. The shaver is essentially a motorized bur. They may be used todebride cartilage, bone or soft tissues. A range of tips of different designsand sizes are available to manage the different tissues. Tips designed forsoft tissues are typically larger and more aggressively toothed. Suction maybe applied to the cutting tip via the hand piece to remove debris. The handpiece is driven by a control box operated by finger or foot controls. Thespeed and direction of cut are selectable. The tips are usually designed tobe disposable, however with careful use, cleaning and re-sterilisation theymay be re-used.

Arthroscopes areavailable which can be autoclaved. However, repeated autoclaving of eventhese arthroscopes will significantly reduce their working life, this beingparticularly true of the smaller sizes. Sterility is more commonly achieved bysoaking in an anti-microbial solution. Historically glutaraldehyde basedsolutions were the norm but health and safety concerns have led to thedevelopment of safer chemicals based on oxidation. The manufacturer’sinstructions should be followed carefully. Ethylene oxide, if available, isanother option.Perasafe is a pale blue/white powder which, when in solution, steriliseswithin 10 minutes.

Care should be exercised to avoid contact of the sterilizingfluid with the electrical contacts at the end of the cable. (Some cameraleads have sealing caps). An assistant outside the sterile area should plugthe camera into the controller prior to use. An alternative is the use of asterile disposable camera sleeve to separate the camera head and cablefrom the sterile arthroscope eyepiece.

If the ring is too far back it will limit theeffectiveness of the Biko device. Some harnesses drop the ring too farcaudally e.g. a large harness on a stocky dog.Measurement ‘A’ is the distance from the ring to the cranial aspect of theproximal metatarsus.Measure ‘B’ is the circumference around the foot at the level of theproximal metatarsus.Coding . Using the above measurements the product code becomesBIKOAABB, where AA is measurement A in cms and BB is measurement Bin cms.Degenerative myelopathy (CDRM) is not uncommon, particularly in theGerman Shepherd, Boxer and Pembroke Corgi. It is a difficult condition tomanage either medically or surgically. Whilst the progression of thedegeneration can be delayed by dietary supplements, treatment options arevery limited. Sooner or later the control over the hind limb deteriorates tothe point where walking and particularly turning is difficult. Excoriation ofthe toes and dorsal surface of the foot typically follows. Affected dogs arewell in themselves and owners are often highly motivated. Keeping the dogas active as possible is important to delay progression. The Biko physiobrace has been developed to assist the dog in walking and turning for aslong as possible. The system is based on elastic straps which run from achest harness to the hind feet. As the the hind foot reaches the end of thestride and the weight is transferred to the opposite foot the strap helps tobring the trailing foot straight forward ready for the next stride therebycompensating for the loss of muscle tone.Dogs suffering from nerological deficits, both temporary and permanent,due to disc pathology will also benefit from the Biko brace.The brace is simple to apply and is tolerated very well. Dogs resume usefullevels of activity significantly improving the length and the quality of theirlives. The physiotherapy occurs whenever the dog is walking which makesit more effective than sessional hydrotherapy or physiotherapy. Use ofthe Biko brace delays euthanasia or use of a cart. Feedback from ownersis excellent.For best results the brace should be exactly the correct length. Selection ofthe appropriate brace requires that the patient is measured as shown.Once fitted the programme supplied should be followed closely for bestresults. Use of the Biko brace may be combined with other therapies suchas physio or hydrotherapy.Should scuffing continue we recommend the use of Therapaws( see page 43)Measurements and codingBefore the dog can be measured for the Biko device an appropriate harnessmust be in position.

Forany given size of clamp it is now possible to use both larger and smallerdiameter pins than standard KE systems. KE Plus is fully compatible withyour existing KE setup. KE Plus clamps have a matt finish compared withthe polished standard KE clamps.infoWHICH PINS?LARGEST THREADDIAMETERLARGE SINGLE 6.5mm 3.0mmMEDIUM SINGLE 4.8mm 2.4mmSMALL SINGLE 3.6mm 0.9mmSMALLEST SHANKDIAMETERThis clamp remains the industry standard in veterinary orthopaedics. Mostcriticisms levelled at KE are usually attributable to pilot error. Usedcorrectly KE is very effective. Used to attach fixation pin to connecting bar,the single clamp is the key element of any external fixation frame. Its sizewill dictate the size of the fixation pin and the size of the connecting bar.The greater the diameter of the connecting bar and the greater the numberof connecting bars, the stronger the apparatus.As a guide, we would suggest small clamps for up to 5kgs, medium clampsfor 5 - 30kgs, and large clamps or multiple medium frames for over 30kgs.Each clamp will accept a variety of pins. The pin size indicated is thelargest possible. Smaller pins will also work although the fixation is notquite as rigid. e.g. the proximal radius may need a slightly smaller pin thanthe distal radius.SINGLE KE CLAMP001583 Large KE Clamp Single £10.00001591 Medium KE Clamp Single £10.00001593 Small KE Clamp Single £10.00Insert sleeves may be used through the KE Plus clamps to act as soft tissueprotectors for pilot drills.46


www.vetinst.comEXTERNAL FIXATION 4Double ClampsExtra Large Clamps and BarsUsed to attach a connecting bar to another connecting bar. If possible, thefixation pins in the proximal fragment should be linked to the pins in thedistal fragment via single clamps and a single connecting bar. This is notalways possible because of the shape of the bones or the angle ofplacement of the pins.It may be necessary to connect the pins in the proximal fragment to a shortconnecting bar and the pins in the distal segment to another shortconnecting bar. Finally the two short connecting bars are joined by a longconnecting bar using double clamps. The frame is not as rigid as the singleconnecting bar frame. Double clamps may be used to connect long barsproximally and distally, as in type III frames.DOUBLE CLAMPS001594 Small Double Clamp £16.50001592 Medium Double Clamp £17.50001584 Large Double Clamp £19.30Connecting BarsConnecting bars are available in 5/16" for large clamps, 3/16" for mediumclamps and 1/8" for small clamps. The thicker the bar, the stronger theframe is. The shorter the bar between bone fragments, the stronger theframe is.Rigidity is important early in fracture healing. When significant callus ispresent, it is often helpful to introduce some slight axial motion by eitherremoving some pins or moving the clamps further away from the bone. Thisis known as staging down or dynamising.Bars are available in a variety of lengths.Specials to order including angled bars.

4 EXTERNAL FIXATIONExternal FixationESF HingeTrochar PinsTrocharOur Trochar pins have a special long point designed to cut bone. Use ofpins with short trochar tips generates heat which leads to pin loosening.The smooth shanks of the pins provide minimal pull out resistance.Trochar pins should, therefore, be placed at converging or diverging anglescompared to other pins in the same bone fragment.TROCHAR PINS001556 Trochar Pin 2mm £2.50001557 Trochar Pin 3mm £2.50001558 Trochar Pin 4mm £2.50EXL10 1/4” Trochar Pin £7.58EXL 11 5/16” Trochar Pin £9.14Cortical Negative Threaded Pins(Ellis type)Designed specifically to maintain reduction of luxated hips by means of asimple frame on the pelvis, the ESF hinge is also useful in transarticularframes where continued mobility is desirable, e.g. hock and elbow.Attaches to standard KE equipment.

Insituations where a fracture is likely to heal rapidly (young animal, goodfracture reduction) pins do not need to be complicated. The frame will beremoved in approximately five weeks.Generally speaking the more complex the pin design the more expensive itis and the more difficult it is to insert. Base your pin selection onanticipated frame duration; less than 5 weeks use Trochar or Ellis type,more than five weeks use at least some positive threaded pins. The holdingpower of the pin is related to the area of bone/pin interface.Use as large a pin as possible consistent with bone size, approximately onethird bone diameter maximum. Positive threaded pins increase thebone/pin interface for any given pin shank diameter. Proximal radius istricky when applying a type II frame. Consider using a smaller pinproximally than distally or use a type 1b frame (two type one frames on thecranial surface at 90 degrees to each other).infoWHICH PRE-DRILL?SHANK NEGATIVE PIN POSITIVE PIN1.6 1.1 1.52.0 1.5 1.92.4 2.0 2.33.0 2.53.2 2.7 3.03.5 3.04.0 3.2 3.85.0 4.5CorticalThe drilling tip of this type of pin is the long Trochar.

The drilling tipis, again, the long Trochar. In young bone, use without pre-drilling; in older,hardened bone, use smaller pilot hole.The much improved pull out resistance means that these pins can be placedparallel within the same bone fragment; useful when fragment is smaller orwhen aligning proximal and distal fragments. More prone to pin fracture thanEllis pins.

The major benefit of positivepins is that the additional thread diameter creates a larger bone pininterface for a given shaft diameter. This style of pin is useful where a goodpull out resistance is required and where it is anticipated that the frameswill be left in situ for long periods - 6 weeks plus. Use KE Plus clamps ifavailable.

4 EXTERNAL FIXATIONPin CuttersSee page 31External FixationPin InsertionSafety Pin Cutter to 4mmStandard CuttersSafety CutterCorrect pin insertion requires slow axial rotation under pressure. A Jacobshand chuck can be used particularly where bone is young and soft. There isa tendency when using a hand chuck to produce a hole which is notcircular, this will reduce the pin/bone interface resulting in premature pinloosening. The small Jacobs hand chuck gives better control and is bigenough for 2, 3 and 4mm pins.The ideal instrument in my experience, is the Variable Speed OrthopaedicDrill which offers maximum control and minimal wobble. It delivers pureaxial rotation.

It is closelybased on the well proven original Ilizarov model with some modifications forsmall animal use.The kit is available in two forms 001800A has 70 and 100mm ringsmanufactured in high tensile aluminium. 001800C has the 70 and 100mmrings made from ultra lightweight carbon fibre. In both sets the 120 and160mm rings are made from stainless steel.Connection plates are used to convert half or 5/8 rings into ellipsoid or ovals.A range of clamps is included to allow the fixation of wires to the rings in avariety of positions. Half pins (negative or positive profiles) may be added tothe frames using the posts and clamps provided.Several spanners are included to enable the surgeon to access clamps inrestricted areas and to allow the surgeon to accurately control wire alignmentand to a degree wire tension.Conical washers allow rings to change angle relative to the threaded rods forsmall angular adjustments.Hinges are included for dynamic angular deformity correction.360 degree universal <strong>joint</strong>s are included.The incremental motors move 0.25mm per click.A dedicated mechanical tensioner facilitates application of tension.Although not critical using smaller rings, tension is very important using thinwires on large rings.Kit Contents:DESCRIPTIONQTYFull Ring 70mm Aluminium or Carbon Fibre 45/8 Ring 70mm Aluminium or Carbon Fibre 1Full Ring 100mm Aluminium or Carbon Fibre 45/8 ring 100mm Aluminium or Carbon Fibre 1Half Rings - 120 mm Stainless Steel 8Half Rings - 160 mm Stainless Steel 85/8th Ring - 120 mm Stainless Steel 15/8th Ring - 160 mm Stainless Steel 1Multiple-pin fixation clamp 2Single pin fixation bolt 2Cannulated Bolts 30Slotted Bolts 12Connection Bolts 10Telescopic Rod - 100 mm 6Telescopic Rod - 150 mm 6Threaded Rod - 100 mm 6Threaded Rod - 150 mm 6Threaded Rod - 200 mm 6Nut - 10 mm 100Square nut 8Non slip nylon bushed nut 63 Hole connection plate 44 Hole connection plate 45 Hole connection plate 26 Hole connection plate 27 Hole connection plate 2Twisted plate 2Male post 2 holes 2Male Post - 3 Holes 2Male post - 4 holesFemale post - 2 holes 2Female Post - 3 Holes 2Washer 30Hinge female 6Hinge male 6Universal Joints 3Incremental motors (4 clicks = 1mm) 3Wrenchocube 3 Hole 2K.

It may be more convenient to change the burand clean them up afterwards.BRUSHA315 Bur Brush £17.20BursAll surgical burs have a 2.36mm shank (HP fitting) and will fit in all high speed surgical bur machines e.g. 3M's Minos, Halls Surgairtome, Foredom. We haveselected Komet burs for their high quality. All are single pack and non sterile. In human <strong>surgery</strong> burs are regarded as disposable items. In veterinary <strong>surgery</strong>the cost precludes using burs as disposables. However, use of burs which are less than sharp extends procedure time and creates heat. We do advise thatburs are checked and changed on a regular basis.Diamond burs are sharper and create less heat that carbide equivalents. Adequate irrigation is essential.

Highspeed drills need bottled gas or a big compressor. A twin dial regulator isbest to control gas pressure. (001756) One dial gives bottle pressure, theother one gives line pressure (7 Bar).UK supplied hoses come with an MA7 probe (Medical Air 7 Bar pressure).Schrader fittings on hoses purchased from the USA look similar to UK MA7probes.

6 SPINAL SURGERYSurgery of the spineSpinal SurgeryElectric Flexidrive Bur SystemIntroductionSurgery of the spine in the cat and the dog can be performed in generalpractice provided that appropriate skills and instrumentation are available.Diagnostic skills and equipment are of course equally important.Myelography is another procedure which is not particularly difficult and canbe very rewarding. However, myelography perhaps should only beperformed if the means to correct the problem is available. Spinal <strong>surgery</strong>is an increasingly common topic at CPD meetings and courses. Equippedwith knowledge and some instruments, practice (initially on cadavers)makes perfect.Many procedures can be performed using hand instruments only, eg.fenestration of cervical and thoraco/lumbar discs. Evenhemilaminectomies and slotting can be done manually provided that thecorrect instruments and time are available. Access to high speed drills andburs does, however, make life easier and significantly reduces <strong>surgery</strong> time.The choice of power tools is very difficult with a wide range of options.Important criteria include drill speed, bur range, ease of sterilising andexpense.<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> has assembled a range of hand instruments andsurgical power tools which will enable the veterinary surgeon to performmost spinal procedures.The range is such that if you do not know exactly what you require ask for aselection on a sale or return basis. Simon Wheeler's book is an excellentguide. The new edition is now available which is even better.For the occasional spinal surgeon, this budget system performs very well.The burs run at 0 - 18,000 rpm controlled via a foot pedal and the flexidriveis easy to use. Now supplied with removable, autoclavable handpiece. Usesterile autoclavable film to shroud the flexible shaft. Supplied as a completekit including burs and instructions. When you are cutting more than oneback per month think about a Minos/Surgairtome.

7 IMPLANTS & SCREWSInstrumentsImplant Designs and SpecificationsFor many years, veterinary orthopaedics have been complicated by the useof two incompatible plating systems: AO/ASIF type cortical screws pluscompression type plates, and Sherman type screws plus Sherman andVenables type plates. The two systems differed both in their metallurgy andtheir strength.All our implants are now made from stainless steel of the latest humanspecification, exceeding DIN 17443 and ISO 5832/1 (all are versions ofstainless 316LV). This is the same specification material used by othermanufacturers. In addition where international standards have been appliedto screw threads e.g. 3.5 cortical screws (DIN 58812) our implants meetthese standards. It is now safe to use implants from a variety of sourcesprovided they meet the above specifications. All implants made in Europemust be compatible with each other.Round hole plates may be used with cortical screws. Only corticocancellousscrews with spherical heads can be used to achieve compression usingcompression plates.Self-Tapping Cortical ScrewsAfter many years of being advised by AO that self-tapping screws wereunacceptable, it now seems that they are fine and are supplied as selftappingcortical screws. The pull out resistance is unaffected provided theself-tapping flutes sit outside the bone. In our view long holes in hard boneshould be pre-tapped e.g. a trans-condylar screw in the mature humerus ora position screw through the calcaneus. <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong>'scortical kits are now available with self-tapping cortical screws or regularcortical screws which require a tap.Implants & ScrewsStainless Equipment BoxesBX2735CSThe design of this stainless lidded box is such that steam can circulate freelyto ensure complete sterility. The standard size is 250 x 150 x 55mm, whichfits all typical veterinary autoclaves. A range of boxes has been developed tohouse plating equipment and implants for each screw size system.Suffix CS is for AO type cortical screw equipment. Suffix ST is forself-tapping (Sherman) type equipment.

The profileis similar to the screw in question but haslong flutes to allow bone debris to becleared. Taps are available as stand alone‘T’ bar configuration or as a quick releaseversion which require a separate handle. 2.7, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 and 6.5mm quickrelease taps require Synthes type quick release handle. 1.5 and 2.0mmquick release taps require a small dental fit handle.TAPSQRCS01 Handle for 2.7, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5 taps. Synthes fit £95.46Quick Release Tap Handle Dental FitTD0015Metal HandleBy carefully positioning screws within the special holes of compressionplates, compression can be exerted at the reduced fracture site as thescrew is tightened. As the spherical head of the screw strikes the rear edgeof the hole in the plate, the screw, (and the attached bone) are forced awayfrom the edge of the hole and towards the fracture site.The object of compression is to provide for primary bone union. A specialguide must be used to position accurately the screw hole within the plate.The oval shaped holes in DCP’s allow a greater range of screw angulationsthan round hole plates.

This usually results in a compromiseof one or the other being placed in a less than ideal position or a fiddletrying to feed the screw through the plate at the same time as reducing thefracture. <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong>’s new keyhole plate allows the plate tobe placed after the lag screw. Before tightening the screw it is a simplematter to fit the protecting plate over the head of the screw. The screwhead tightens into the narrower part of the keyhole.The design of the keyhole allows a greater range ofscrew angle than is possible in a standard DCP.The strength of the plate is unaffected.Available as a 3.5 7 hole DCPi.e. the keyhole hole and threeeither side.The standard human cortical screw is suitable for very large dogs andequines.

Aninterlocking nail is basically an intra-medullary pin secured in position byproximal and distal transfixing screws which engage the bone to the nail toprovide axial, bending and torsional stability.In comminuted long bone fractures, the Interlocking Nail System is usefuldue to the mechanical advantage of medullary implantation (i.e. mechanicalaxis) and prevention of collapse of the fracture by the interlocking effect.Ancillary cerclage wires reduce periosteal stripping and minimisedisturbance to blood supply compared to plating.<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> stocks the 4 hole no.11 nails (11mm spacing) in8.0, 6.0, 4.7 and 4.0mm nail diameters.We also maintain stocks of additional drill bits and taps - please phonefor information.IN1168SET Model 11 - 6.0 / 8.0 set IN1147SET Model 11 - 4.0 / 4.7 setMODEL 11 - 6mm / 8mm WITH INTERLOCKING NAILSfor 2.7mm and 3.5mm screwsHole spacing is 11.0mm.

Two stemsizes are available. The taper neck is the same on both. Two ball optionsare available, the ball diameter is 15mm in both cases. The “short neck”ball when fitted to the standard taper neck gives a short necked prosthesisand the “long neck” ball gives a long necked prosthesis. When combinedwith the two acetabular cups a total of 8 combinations are possible. Themost common combination is a small stem and long neck ball together witha small acetabular cup.The surgeon most familiar with the system is Hamish Denny, FRCVS, whohelped develop the system and has performed over 200 procedures. Healso produced the instructional video which is available on free loan. This isnot a ‘high tech’ system which requires a mass of dedicatedinstrumentation and jigs. It is a simple, well proven system which assumesthat the surgeon has the knowledge and expertise to complete theprocedure.Two sizes are available. The internal diameter is the same, as all the headsof the femoral components are 15mm in diameter. The only differencebetween the cups is the wall thickness and therefore the outside diameter.All cups are marked with stainless rings to establish cup position onradiographs. Cups have very deep grooves on the external diameter toprovide good cement keying.ACETABULAR CUPS150402 Medium Acetabular Cup (Sterile) £84.18150401 Small Acetabular Cup (Sterile) £84.18Femoral RaspCombination Stem size Neck Acetabular cup1 Small Stem Short Small2 Small Stem Long Small3 Small Stem Short Medium4 Small Stem Long Medium5 Large Stem Short Small6 Large Stem Long Small7 Large Stem Short Medium8 Large Stem Long Medium102The aim of the femoral rasp is to produce a hole the same shape as thestem of the femoral prosthesis plus a margin for the bone cement.

Contains full instructions for use.SCHIOTZ TONOMETER WITH WEIGHTS581500 Schiotz Tonometer, inclined scale, in case £101.11TonoVetTonoVet is based on a new ‘induction impact principle’, where an ultra lightprobe touches the cornea very gently. As such, no topical anaesthetic isrequired. Usually the animal does not even notice so sedation is seldomneeded.The clear benefit compared to the ‘pen’ type tonometer is TonoVet’s lowforce on the eye. The probe weight is a mere 26.5mg with a contact time of0.3 millisecs. The ‘pen’ type probe actually bends the cornea.In practical terms this means that intra-occular pressure can be measuredby the Tonovet within an hour of <strong>surgery</strong>. With ‘pen’ types you have to wait4 to 5 hours.Uses standard AA batteries. c.f.

12 DENTAL MACHINESIntroductionIt is possible to scale and polish using only hand instruments. It is,however, extremely time consuming. Teeth must be polished after scalingor plaque and tartar will quickly reform.Simple scaling and polishing can be accomplished using electrically drivensystems.A wider range of procedures including tooth sectioning will require an airdriven unit capable of delivering compressed air and water to thehandpieces.Ultrasonic ScalersUltrasonic scalers work by delivering high frequency vibrations to a metaltip. The vibration may be generated by a variety of mechanisms.• Sonic. The tip is vibrated using air from the compressor. The action isvery gentle but very slow with cost and anaesthesia implications.• Magneto restrictive (cavitron type). The tip is vibrated by multiplelayered metal strips and a magnetic field. Typically their type generates alot of heat which requires a lot of cooling water. 35-38000Hz.• Piezo. The movement at the tip is generated by applying a currentacross a crystal. Typically uses less water.• Ferrite Rod. The tip movement is generated by an electrical fieldaround a ferrite rod. This system is capable of producing higherfrequencies up to 42,000Hz.<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> stock Piezo and Ferrite Rod types (iM3 42-12).We think these are most appropriate for veterinary use.Please note that all ultrasonic scalers should be used with care asinappropriate use will result in damage to enamel.Piezo ScalerDental MachinesPiezo Scaler with Detachable, Autoclavable HandpieceThis top of the range piezo unit has a handpiece which is detachable forcleaning and autoclaving .

www.vetinst.comDENTAL MACHINES 12iM3 DentistryiM3 is an exclusively veterinary dental equipment company. iM3understands the special requirements of veterinary dentists and hasproduced a range of products to meet these requirements. Reliability andquality of construction are key features. iM3 units are designed to last andlast. Older units can be upgraded to current specification. Most specialistteachers recommend iM3.iM3 42-12 Ultrasonic ScalerCLS ConcentrateUsed in the water system system of dental unitsCLS freshens and sterilises the mouth. Whenused as coolant for high speed handpiecescutting efficiency is improved . It preventstransfer of FeLV and it can also be flushedthrough the air turbines to sterilise and lubricatethem using the iM3 CLS flushing system.The unique composition of CLS allows use ofchlorhexidine in all dental equipment. Standardchlorhexidine crystallises out from solution andwill damage your equipment. Do not use regularchlorhexidine in dental units as it will crystalliseout in the handpieces rendering them inoperative.Purchase of the larger pack sizes gives significantsavings.CLS CONCENTRATECLS1 CLS Solution 250ml £8.78CLS6 CLS Solution 250ml - 6 Pack £47.41CLS12 CLS Solution 250ml - 12 Pack £94.93Plaque Disclosing SolutionThe 42-12 is unlike any other ultrasonic scaler. All other ultrasonic scalerswork on the 'jack hammer' or scraping movement of the scaler tip. Theyneed to remain sharp and scrape the tooth through the movement of thetip. They also generate a lot of heat and in manyinstances are unsuitable for subginigival scalingbecause of this. The 42-12 works in a similarfashion to a water bath instrument cleaner, wherethe high frequency ultrasonic sound lifts theplaque and calculus, the circular motion of the tipmoves and dislodges loosened debris, which iswashed away by the water. The extremely highfrequency, 42,000Hz, and the small tip amplitude (0.02mm) all contributeto safer, quicker, less traumatic and more effective scaling.The shaft of the tip is totally round, made from titanium and has no fixedscaling position; it scales anywhere within 360 degrees. The shaft touchesthe tooth with as much of its length on the tooth as possible and is wipedback and forth without pressure, as though you are painting the tooth witha paint brush. More pressure does not improve the scaling. The 42-12represents the cutting edge of ultrasonic scaler technology today, giving lessenamel damage and scaling taking half the time. The capsule around virusor bacteria will be shattered by the ultrasonic sound within 1-2 mm of thetip in subgingival pockets. There is no foot switch but a sliding on/off switchon the handpiece. The water supply plugs directly into any IM3 dental unitor pump-up water bottle.Many owners are very aware of the need for scaling and polishing on aregular basis. However, should any convincing be necessary the ‘IC Plaquedisclosure’ is ideal for the purpose. Simply swab around the mouth withthe convenient dispenser and the plaque shows up as a vivid pink.PLAQUE DISCLOSING SOLUTIONICIM3 iCplaque (Box 100) £49.50IM3 42-12 ULTRASONIC SCALERIM34212 IM3 Ultra Sonic Scaler with unique rotational tip £984.00125Dental Machines

The iM3 Ultra is state of the art, theiM3 GS is a midrange unit built to the same standards as the Ultra. The<strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> Minicart is a straightforward unit containing allthe essentials of an air driven dental machine. All are offered as a completeset up for cutting and polishing but all can be modified by the addition offurther handpieces and accessories.iM3 GSDental MachinesAll of the Ultra options are available for the GS apart from suction andautomatic handpieces. An air driven unit at an affordable price. If you don'trequire suction this unit has all you need. Being less demanding in its airrequirements the GS can be run from a mid-priced quiet compressor.Listed below is a typical set up but many other options are possible Wewould be happy to run through the various possibilities. The main choice isbetween the non Fibre Optic version and the Fibre Optic version. Details ofboth are shown below.The GS is supplied with the following handpieces. Push button Highspeed,low speed motor, 4:1 straight nose cone and a starter pack of oscillatingprophy cups.

We can upgrade oldermachines to current specifications.Silent HurricaneA busy dental unit needs a lot of air. The Silent Hurricane is designed todeliver what you need without overheating or you having to wait for‘compressor catch up’. The large 25 litre reserve means that thecompressor is not constantly running. CE certified.Fibre OpticsAutomatic Handpiece ActivatorsThe inside of the dog or cat’s mouth isrelatively dark. It is difficult to set up ancillarylighting to get light to where you need it (c.f.human dentistry). Fibre optics deliverbrilliant light exactly where you need it. Fibreoptics are standard on the Ultra but anoption on the GS.As soon as you remove the Handpiece from the holder it becomes activevia the foot control. No need to fiddle with switches. Whichever handpieceyou have in your hand will work when you press the foot control.SuctionHighspeeds and ultrasonics produce a lot of fluid. Removal of fluid especiallyfrom the back of the mouth is desirable to minimise inhalation or ingestion.The integral suction of the Ultra is there when you need it. Strips down foreasy cleaning and the tips are autoclavable.CLS High Speed FlushThe coolant system on the iM3 Ultra can be switched between distilledwater and CLS. CLS is used to freshen and disinfect the mouth and as acutting aid for high speed burs. In addition the CLS system can be used toflush the high speed turbine thereby killing any FELV which may have beensucked in. Flushing is an alternative to handpiece autoclaving whichsignificantly shortens turbine life.Corian Topped StorageThe top of iM3 units is made from white Corian which is good to look at andeasy to clean. On the Ultra the top lifts up to reveal a large storage area forhandpieces burs etc. A magnetic zone at the front ‘captures’ burs andprevents them from falling onto the floor.HandpiecesThe iM3 Ultra is supplied complete with the following handpieces.

Inveterinary <strong>surgery</strong> less than 10% of surgeries utilise skin staples. The use ofskin staplers has been limited in veterinary <strong>surgery</strong> due to the high cost ofdisposable human skin staplers. The use of sutures with needle packs hasbeen less expensive to close the skin. The introduction of SurgiClosestapling system addresses the specific needs of the veterinary surgeon.Features:• Autoclavable stapler-handle that can be re-used• Staple cartridges (20/pack) cost less than a pack of needle sutures• A huge saving over conventional throw away skin staples• Both handle and staples are provided sterile.The benefits of using any skin stapler are widely known andaccepted in human <strong>surgery</strong>:• Better apposition of skin edges with better cosmetic result• Less reactivity of stainless steel staples• Significantly faster wound closure with staples• Ease of learning proper techniqueThe SurgiClose Stapler in Use:• Staple cartridges are inserted into the handle• After use the handle can be autoclaved for repeated use• Staple cartridges are especially designed to reduce jamming• Staple length is 5.75mm, a better length for the thickness of animal skinversus very thin human skin• The 20 staples provided per cartridge are sufficient for a 10cm to 13cmincision• A closed staple has a square shape that restricts the movement or rollingof a staple.SURGICLOSE SKIN STAPLERS012540 Autoclavable Stapler (Handle Only 6 pack) Sterile £35.93012542 Staple Cartridge with 20 sterile staples (36 pack) £94.55012544 Staple Remover £2.50Surgiclose Starter KitA special introductory starter pack allows you to try the system at minimalcost.

www.vetinst.comINSTRUMENT CARE 17Melag AutoclavesLittle Sister type autoclaves are designed to sterilise non wrapped soliditems on open trays. This type of autoclave is classified as type N and inhuman practice it is not permitted for sterilisation of wrapped instruments(even in autoclave bags) or hollow instruments for fear that the steam willnot fully penetrate.To ensure full penetration of steam a vacuum cycle must first remove theair from the chamber. Type B autoclaves are the highest specificationmachines and are suitable for the sterilisation of all wrapped or non -wrapped, solid, hollow and porous products. In addition the Type Bautoclaves produce dry packs and instruments which minimises stainingand corrosion of instruments.In human hospitals it is a requirement that printed records are created andkept of each cycle. Now that MRSA infections are also appearing inveterinary practice it would seem reasonable that we should do the same.For the first time <strong>Veterinary</strong> <strong>Instrumentation</strong> is including an autoclave in ourcatalogue. After a lot of research and discussions with users we haveselected the MELAG Vakuklav 23-B as representing the best combinationof specification, ease of use and value. MELAG is a family run concern withdecades of experience in designing and producing autoclaves. Melagautoclaves are backed up by a UK wide network of engineers. For extrarapid cycle times consider the Melag Cheeta class autoclave.Why MELAG?Conformation - International regulation prEN13060/1-4 categorisesautoclaves as types N, S and B according to their operational parametersand intended applications. All Melag autoclaves conform.Independent Validation - Melag Type B autoclaves have beenindependently validated by a leading German University and have exceededthe requirements of prEN13060/1-4 for Class B Autoclaves.Water Purity - Only the best quality demineralised or sterile water shouldbe used to avoid autoclave malfunction and possible long term damage.Melag type B machines automatically check water quality before eachcycle. If the sterilising water contains impurities the autoclave will informthe operator and prevent use of the contaminated water. This feature isunique to Melag and significantly contributes to Melag’s enviablereputation for long term reliability and longevity.Water Cycle - Melag type B autoclaves allow the user a choice of either 1way or water recirculation. With either system the autoclave will inform theuser when refilling or draining is requiredSimplicity - Simple push button operation. With its large back litalphanumeric display Melag informs the user of the cycle chosen andstages reached within the cycle.Comprehensive cycles - The user has a wide choice of cycles for differentload typesDocumentation - For security every Melag Type B machine includes aprinter which comprehensively documents every cycle and sterilizing event.Alternatively each Melag B can be supplied with MelaWin software whichruns unobtrusively in the background. This programme archives everycycle. These are available for printing and examination.Reliability and longevity - All Melag autoclaves are manufactured from thehighest quality materials available. Pressure chambers and doors aremanufactured from stainless steel, pressure lines and pipes from Teflonand all other parts in contact with water from bronze. Door seals aremanufactured from long life silicon. Lifetime chamber guarantee. Melagrecommended service intervals are 1000 cycles or 2 years whichever isshorter.167MELAG Class B Autoclaves.Vakuklav 23-Bmelag type23 BHighest specification Class B Bench top vacuum autoclave conforming toprEN13060/1-4 Fractionated Pre-Vacuum, with sub atmospheric pulsing.Simple Choice of Programsmelag prog 1Universal Cycle, 134c 2.1 bar, suitable for wrapped and unwrappedinstruments and certain hollow items.melag prog 2Quick Cycle, 134c 2.1 bar, suitable for unwrapped instruments only whichare required for rapid re-use.

19 ANAESTHESIAAnaesthesiaThe Stephens Anaesthetic MachineThe Stephens is a closed circuit anaesthetic machine with the advantagesof simplicity of operation and very low running costs. Relatively expensive,new anaesthetic agents such as SEVOFLURANE may be used economicallywith this system. The Stephens is supplied as illustrated as a complete selfcontained unit requiring only a supply of oxygen. We are confident you willbe impressed by the simplicity and versatility of the system.Although based on a circle system, the internal resistance to breathing ofthis circuit is very low. This is due to the extremely lightweight valves usedin the uni-directional assembly. These valves are not spring loaded as is thecase with many circle systems. Any animal which can be intubated may besafely anaesthetised using the Stephens system.Circuit dead space is also very low. Fresh gas is available at the "Y" mount.Rebreathing is minimal.The anaesthetic circuit is of the circle type, with the vapouriser placedwithin the circuit on the inspiratory side. Most anaesthetic systems in usein the UK today have the vapouriser out of circuit. A video illustrating theuse of the Stephens with various species and Isoflurane is available on freeloan.In an apparatus of this type the animal inhales gas from the reservoir bag.Some or all of the inhaled gas can be caused to flow over the volatile liquidanaesthetic agent contained within the vapouriser. After leaving thevapouriser, the gas mixture passes along the inspiratory side of the circle toa mask or endotracheal tube and then to the animal's lungs. On exhalationthe gas is directed along the expiratory side of the circle, through the twosoda lime canisters and then into the reservoir bag by means of a set ofunidirectional valves.STEPHENS ANAESTHETIC MACHINE025400 Stephens Anaesthetic Machine £1,999.00Stephens Universal VapouriserDesigned to be versatile, the Stephens vapouriser is readily used with anyvolatile anaesthetic agent eg Halothane, Isoflurane and Sevoflurane.The main control on the vapouriser provides a smooth increase inconcentration between "Off" and "On". In contrast to most vapourisers, awide and constant bore is maintained throughout the mechanism,regardless of the setting on the main control. This unique property isachieved by the use of special port design in the vapouriser head. The boreis always equivalent to 22mm (7/8") the same diameter as standard circuittubing. Back pressure and turbulence are reduced to an absolute minimum.As the anaesthetic vapouriser is located within the circuit, the mass ofanaesthetic agent delivered to the animal at a particular setting of thevapouriser changes with the variations in the minute volume of therespiration. If the depth of anaesthesia increases, the decrease in minutevolume which results is followed by a decrease in the rate of vapourisationof the anaesthetic. Conversely, the rate of vapourisation of the anaestheticincreases as the depth of anaesthesia decreases. Because the changes inthe depth of anaesthesia are automatically followed by compensatingchanges in the mass of anaesthetic delivered to the animal, the system is174partially self regulating. Once the animal is stable at a surgical plane ofanaesthesia it is very rare for any further adjustments to be necessary. Thesystem is very simple to use.KEY FEATURES:• Oxygen consumption is very low. In a closed circuit system the onlyoxygen fed into the circuit is to replace that metabolised by the patient(approximately 5ml/kg/minute).• Volatile consumption is very low. In normal use there is no loss of volatileto the scavenge circuit.• Pollution is very low which is good for staff and very easy to deal with.Passive systems or absorbers are sufficient.• The Stephens has the lowest running costs of any gaseous anaestheticsystem.• All patients which can be intubated, including those less than 1 kg maybe safely anaesthetised using the Stephens.VERY SIMPLE, VERY SAFE, VERY ECONOMICALSTEPHENS ANAESTHETIC MACHINE (Refurbished)025400A Refurbished Stephens £999.00

Hypertension is often overlookedduring diagnosis, treatment and routine physical examinations in smallanimals. In addition many hypotensive patients, such as those suffering fromshock, benefit greatly from Doppler measurement of blood pressure whenknowing the pressure can mean effective and timely treatment.Combining Doppler with an approriate sized 'cuff' for small animals, providesthe veterinarian with the same non invasive method for testing bloodpressure as is available in human medicine. A small probe is placed over aperipheral artery (e.g digital or coccygeal). An ultrasonic crystal in the probetransmits pulse wave sound back to the amplifier. The pressure cuff isinflated until the pulse sound is no longer audible. The cuff is slowlydeflated, using the manometer, until pulse sounds are audible once more, atwhich point the manometer displays a numeric value of the animal's systolicpressure.Lightweight hand-held unit; high quality, vet spec sphygmomanometer.Comes complete with 2 cuffs (2.5cm and 5.0cm).
