The ArthroWand CoVac 70 offers precise ablation with simultaneous suction capabilities. The tip configuration improves visibility and offers access to hard to reach areas. One active electrode covers the suction opening to prevent clogging while the active loop electrode smoothly sculpts soft tissue. Suction tube placement indicates electrode orientation to increase safety when visibility is impaired.

The wand is suited for a variety of knee procedures. The product sculpts articular cartilage on the femoral groove and condyles. The versatile angle also reaches the outer aspects of the anterior and posterior meniscus, and the design of this device makes this wand ideal for working in tight knees while maintaining visibility.

Additionally, the wand features a 70° angle that accesses hard to reach areas of the knee. The wand's Suction attracts loose, floating tissue and enhances visibility, and the electrode design prevents clogging. The wand is also compatible with standard hospital suction equipment.
