Various arthroscopic shavers (10) are provided that minimize contact between bodily fluid and the shaver hand piece (300). Arthroscopic shavers generally include a cutting assembly (100) mated to a hand piece. In one embodiment, the shaver includes a hub (130) that connects the cutting assembly with the hand piece and has an exit port (136) configured to transport cut tissue and fluid from the device. In another embodiment, the shaver includes a hub configured to retrofit existing shaver hand pieces having interior lumens for removing cut tissue and fluid. The hub further includes an exit port that diverts fluid away from the hand piece. |
