VA Northeast Ohio Health Care System, Surgical Services is requesting the purchase of shaver equipment for ENT Procedures that will be done within the clinical setting. The working length and diameter of the Storz shaver is designed for in-office use as it is a low profile system that enables patient comfort and ergonomic use for the surgeon. The assortment of detachable blades allows for multiple areas within the sinuses to be accessed and reached without exerting excessive force on the patient’s nose, which is critical to patient comfort. Compared to other shavers, this device is more readily disassembled to allow efficient cleaning and sterilization throughout central processes, which is essential to patient safety.
