The Klassic ONE® Instrumentation for the Klassic® Knee System offers an inherent efficiency that allows a single tray of instruments to support up to 90% of cases with no patient-specific customization, templating, additional imaging, or disposables.
An auxiliary tray includes micro/macro sizing to allow 100% of primary cases to be performed with two trays. Reducing the number of trays required for each surgery reduces OR time and sterilization costs, helps reduce the incidence of infection and optimizes efficiency and ergonomics. All instrument trays meet AORN standards for weight and are fully validated for cleaning and sterilization.
Klassic ONE® Instrumentation includes a complete overhaul of functionality, aesthetics, and ergonomics. The resulting instruments are lightweight and intuitive.
Quick connections help reduce fatigue and repetitive stress, color and texture indicate adjustability, dark laser marking is added to engraved information for longevity and visibility, and information not critical to the function of the instrument has been removed from the surgeon's view.
The mission of Klassic ONE® Instrumentation is to streamline workflows and reduce cognitive load in the O.R. for our surgeons and their staff, day in and day out.
With no shortage of sizes or options, the Klassic® ONE system comprises intuitive, carefully designed instruments to provide predictable, reproducible results.
Primary and Auxiliary tray layouts are designed to standardize instrument locations across CR/Ultra-PS® and PS-Post™ systems. Standardization allows faster location of instruments when they are needed.
Klassic® ONE eliminates excess waste and extraneous steps while streamlining the surgical technique; we call this Efficiency by Design.
STRIVE FOR EFFICIENCY
Most modern implant companies vary in the trays and instrumentation needed to perform the surgery with some needing up to 9 trays of instruments per case. A decrease in surgical trays allows for faster set up and turn around as well as decreased sterilization and storage costs. This added savings from reduced surgical trays comes with no detriment to the patient and if these benefits are extrapolated over a year in a high-volume practice, the returns in cost reduction are significant. This increased efficiency can reduce preparation time by 20 minutes per case (Tibesku et al. 2013a). Fewer instruments may lead to clinical benefits as well. If fewer instruments are opened and OR preparation time is reduced, instruments spend less time exposed, thereby reducing potential contamination and increasing patient safety (Dalstrom et al. 2008).8
