Conmed Blunt Obturator Y-G003
The Blunt Obturator Y-G003 is a reusable, surgical accessory used in the Y-Knot Flex instrumentation set. It has a blunt tip (not sharp) to facilitate safe introduction of guides or anchor instrumentation without cutting tissue. It works with the slim reusable obturator line in ConMed’s Y-Knot Flex system.
This obturator is designed to be used during surgical preparation when inserting drill guides or anchor placement tools, especially in minimally invasive or arthroscopic procedures, helping protect soft tissue while gaining access. Its blunt tip reduces the risk of accidental tissue laceration compared to sharp trocars. Being reusable, it is made to endure repeated sterilization without compromising its shape or function. It complements the suite of Y-Knot Flex instruments, assisting surgeons in accurate and safe instrument passage.
