What to look for in a KMedic Certified Instrument

On the surface it’s difficult to tell one instrument from another. But in fact, many qualities distinguish KMedic Certified Instruments from those of other manufacturers. Our instruments are the product of a working knowledge of the surgeon’s art, exacting manufacturing specifications and strict adherence to our Quality Assurance Program.

From its origins as an idea, to the crafting of the prototype, to its appearance on a surgical tray, it takes approximately 80 steps to create a KMedic Certified Instrument. Every finished instrument is the result of years of performance monitoring and improvements. Which is why we guarantee every KMedic Certified Instrument for life.

At every stage of the manufacturing process, superior quality is built into our instruments. Before our instruments find themselves in a surgeon’s hand, they are subject to an inspection process that includes:

• Visual inspection against a master sample to assure pattern consistency
• Exacting caliper and micrometer measurements of critical dimensions
• Function tests to ensure adherence to performance standards
• Surface audits to detect imperfections and irregularities
• Corrosion and hardness tests to guarantee functionality and longevity
• Cutting tests to assure jaws will meet the special demands of bone cutting
• Maintenance of product history

The Ruskin Rongeur, shown here, is typical of KMedic craftsmanship. From its perfect symmetry to its glare-diminishing finish, it provides surgeons with the qualities they require to perform at their best. A closer inspection reveals:
	Expertly sharpened jaws for accurate cutting Silk matte hand-finished surface for corrosion resistance Precise geometric design, precision milling and assembly for proper balance and smooth mechanical action KMedic number for easy reorder Manufacturing code to expedite tracing Correct spring tension and size for optimum control and motion Ideal handle dimensions for the right heft and feel
