Flip Top Metal,Plastic& Silicon Reducer

These are small, reusable plastic discs with a hinged metal top that fit onto the cannula of a trocar to reduce the port size. They are used to allow the introduction of smaller instruments into the surgical field through the existing trocar incision, minimizing tissue trauma and potential complications.

flip-top metal, plastic, and silicone reducer, also known as a trocar reducer, is a medical device used in laparoscopic surgery to:

• Reduce the port size of an existing trocar cannula.
• Minimize tissue trauma by allowing the introduction of smaller instruments through the same incision.

It\'s essentially a small, reusable disc with a hinged mechanism that attaches to the cannula. Here\'s a breakdown of its components:

• Flip-top metal cover: This provides a secure closure for the reduced port when not in use.
• Plastic body: The main structure of the reducer, often made from high-grade medical plastic for durability and ease of sterilization.
• Silicone seal: Creates a watertight barrier between the reducer and the cannula, preventing air leaks and fluid spillage.
