To Whom It May Concern:

There are no alternative latex free tubing sets that
are able to function with the LPIS Pump or Linvatec
83000 Arthroscopy System. However, our Apex®
Universal Irrigation System utilizes latex free tubing
sets, as well as our 87000 Pump System.
To the best of our knowledge, the only Linvatec product
whose packaging contains latex is the Puddle-Vac®
floor suction device, catalog no. 9321 (lot
number 360063 and higher are latex free). This
product contains a latex rubber band within the packaging.
If you have any questions, please contact the Linvatec
Regulatory Affairs Department at (727) 392-6464.
Sincerely,
LINVATEC CORPORATION
