CONJUNTO DE TROCARTE E METODO DE SE PUNCIONAR UMA PELE

摘要

An insert (50) is provided to be attached to a shield (24) on a surgical trocar obturator handle (30). The insert is actuated by the surgical trocar cannula handle (30) so that it causes the shield to expose the sharpened obturator tip after insertion of the obturator and shield within the cannula. After usage, the insert is deactivated so that the shield again covers the obturator. The obturator can then be removed from the cannula handle and obturator shield, and the obturator handle can be discarded safely.
