Foraminoscope technology for treating lumbar disc herniation - the optimal choice for minimally invasive treatment

Plasma surgery is a mature minimally invasive technique in the field of sports medicine, mainly utilizing low-temperature plasma energy for precise treatment of joint and soft tissue injuries. This technology uses radio frequency electric field to excite physiological saline and generate plasma, breaking tissue bonds at the molecular level to achieve integrated cutting, ablation, and hemostasis operations. The working temperature is controlled between 40 ℃ and 70 ℃, effectively avoiding tissue carbonization caused by high temperature in traditional electrocautery and facilitating postoperative rehabilitation.Surgical trauma is minimal, bleeding is minimal, and patients recover quickly, making it particularly suitable for athletes and active populations. ‌‌

 

Core application scenarios: 

♦  Plasma knife is usually used in conjunction with arthroscopy in sports medicine surgery, mainly targeting the following injuries:

♦  Joint structure repair: such as meniscus shaping, cruciate ligament reconstruction, and repair of glenoid lip injury.

♦  Soft tissue cleaning: ablation and cleaning of Achilles tendon, tendon, cartilage, and osteochondral injuries.

♦  Hemostasis and swelling reduction: Synchronize hemostasis during anatomical

 

Sports Medicine Plasma Surgery Systems for Arthroscopy

 

Greenland provides sports medicine plasma surgery systems and compatible ablation wands for controlled soft-tissue management during arthroscopic procedures. The solution is designed for medical device distributors, hospital procurement teams, arthroscopy centers, and OEM/ODM partners seeking a generator-and-consumable combination for knee and shoulder applications.

 

Using radiofrequency energy in a conductive saline environment, the system creates a localized plasma field for tissue ablation, cutting, coagulation, and hemostasis. Compared with conventional high-temperature electrosurgical methods, controlled plasma operation is designed to reduce thermal exposure to surrounding tissue and support precise treatment under arthroscopic visualization. Actual indications, settings, and operating procedures must follow the approved product registration and instructions for use in the destination market.

Applications in Knee and Shoulder Arthroscopy

 

Greenland’s sports medicine plasma system is primarily positioned for selected tissue-management steps in knee and shoulder arthroscopy. Product suitability should be confirmed according to the procedure, anatomical access, electrode design, and applicable regulatory approval.

 

Application Area	Typical Tissue-Management Requirements	Buyer Selection Focus
Knee Arthroscopy	Soft-tissue debridement, ACL-related tissue cleanup, localized ablation, coagulation, and hemostasis	Tip profile, access angle, energy adjustment, visibility, and compatible wand models
Shoulder Arthroscopy	Controlled soft-tissue removal, tissue-edge shaping, coagulation, and management of selected tissue around the operative area	Electrode angle, working length, maneuverability, and plasma performance
General Arthroscopic Workflow	Ablation and coagulation under arthroscopic visualization in a conductive saline environment	Generator configuration, foot-control options, consumable availability, and operating-room compatibility

For applications involving other joints or procedures, buyers should request an intended-use and electrode compatibility matrix before ordering.

Choose the Right Plasma Surgery System

 

The choice between a plasma-only generator and a combined RF and plasma platform depends on the hospital’s clinical departments, procedure volume, existing equipment, and consumable plan.

Model	Operating Modes	Key Specifications	Recommended Buyer
P-300 Plasma Surgery System	Plasma mode	100 kHz plasma output; maximum plasma power up to 350 W	Sports medicine departments, arthroscopy centers, and distributors requiring a dedicated plasma platform
PRF-300 RF and Plasma Surgery System	100 kHz plasma mode and 1.71 MHz RF mode	Plasma and RF functions in one generator; cutting, ablation, and coagulation; adjustable output	Hospitals and distributors requiring one platform for sports medicine and additional surgical departments

 

P-300 for Dedicated Sports Medicine Use

The P-300 is the primary recommendation for buyers focused on knee and shoulder arthroscopy. Its plasma mode supports controlled soft-tissue removal, ablation, coagulation, and hemostasis. A dedicated system can also simplify product training, consumable planning, and departmental equipment management.

 

PRF-300 for Multi-Department Procurement

The PRF-300 combines plasma and radiofrequency technologies in one platform. It is suitable for hospitals and distributors that need to support sports medicine together with other approved clinical applications. Buyers can review the complete Plasma and RF 2-in-1 System range before selecting a configuration.

 

Plasma Ablation Wand Selection

 

The generator alone does not define the performance of an arthroscopy plasma solution. The design and compatibility of the disposable electrode are equally important. Greenland offers plasma ablation wands with different structural and angle options for different surgical access requirements.

 

Before requesting a quotation, buyers should confirm:

• ♦  Target procedure and anatomical area;
• ♦  Required tip angle and working-end design;
• ♦  Shaft diameter and working length;
• ♦  Ablation and coagulation requirements;
• ♦  Generator and electrode compatibility;
• ♦  Foot-switch or hand-control requirements;
• ♦  Whether suction or irrigation functions are required;
• ♦  Sterile packaging, shelf life, and storage conditions;
• ♦  Expected monthly or annual electrode consumption.

For buyers considering a combined platform, Greenland also supplies an RF and plasma dual-purpose electrode for use with the corresponding system.

 

Quality-Controlled Manufacturing

 

Greenland operates under an ISO 13485:2016 quality management system and maintains controlled production and testing facilities for medical device development and manufacturing. The company’s capabilities include research and development, equipment production, electrode manufacturing, product testing, and technical support.

 

Because medical device requirements differ by country, distributors should confirm the applicable certificate, registered intended use, model scope, and labeling requirements before placing an order. Visit Greenland’s company and certification page for available quality and company information.

 

Contact Greenland to request a product catalog, configuration list, regulatory document checklist, electrode compatibility information, and distributor quotation.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Which system is more suitable for a sports medicine department?

The P-300 is the more focused option for buyers requiring a dedicated plasma system for knee and shoulder arthroscopy. The PRF-300 is more suitable when a hospital needs both plasma and RF functions for multiple approved departments.

Can one plasma wand be used for every arthroscopic procedure?

No. Electrode selection depends on the anatomical area, access angle, working length, tip design, generator compatibility, and registered intended use.

What should be included in a complete quotation?

A complete quotation should identify the generator, foot switch, power cable, electrode models, consumable quantities, optional accessories, warranty, technical support, packaging, and delivery terms.

Are regulatory documents the same for every country?

No. Registration and labeling requirements vary by market. Buyers should specify the destination country so that the available documents and model scope can be reviewed before ordering.

Can distributors request OEM or ODM cooperation?

OEM/ODM feasibility depends on the model, branding requirements, packaging, labeling, destination-market registration, and projected purchasing volume. Submit these requirements for an individual project review.
