Paradigm^® Accessories

The Paradigm^® system was designed for safety and efficiency.

Paradigm^® Retractable Straight Blades and Hook Blades not only effectively cut the hip capsule, but also features a retractable blunt sheath that protects the articular cartilage and soft tissue from the blade. The Straight Blade is extremely sharp straight to “push-cut” through the capsule The Hook Blade is a retrograde blade that enables effective cutting while providing a soft tissue-protecting blunt tip.

For traditional suture passing, the Paradigm^® Slim Raven™ Suture Passer's sharp tip and low-profile jaws are intended to easily pass and retrieve suture with minimal disruption to the labrum. This may help preserve tissue. The 15° upward angle is designed to provide accurate suture passing in the tight hip joint.

The Paradigm^® Slim Suture Retriever allows the sutures to easily slide through the jaws for effective retrieval. This manual suture retrieving device also features a 15° upward angle.

The first of its kind (based on 2020 market analysis), the Paradigm^® Curved Knot Pusher is designed to simplify knot-tying in hard to reach places and help enable the ability to place the knot stack on the other side of the labrum.
