Surgical Precision Elevated: The Zimmer ATS 2000 Tourniquet System

A Gold Standard in Bloodless Surgical Fields – Available at Medicare Exel, Kenya’s Leading Supplier of Medical Equipment

In the operating room, precision and safety are critical. For orthopedic and limb surgeries, surgeons need a clear, blood-free field for accuracy. The Zimmer ATS 2000 Tourniquet System provides reliable, high-performance support to make this possible.

Understanding the Role of a Tourniquet System in Surgery

A tourniquet system is an essential device in surgical procedures that involve limbs, especially orthopedic, podiatric, and plastic surgeries. Its primary function is to temporarily stop blood flow to a limb by applying controlled pressure via an inflatable cuff, thereby creating a clear, bloodless surgical field.

The benefits include:

• Improved surgical visualization

• Reduced blood loss

• Shorter operative times

• Enhanced precision and efficiency

The Zimmer ATS 2000 Tourniquet System is a market leader in this field, known for its automated calibration, precise pressure regulation, and advanced safety mechanisms.

Introducing the Zimmer ATS 2000 Tourniquet System

Manufactured by Zimmer Biomet, a global leader in musculoskeletal health, the ATS 2000 model is a single-channel, microprocessor-controlled tourniquet system. Designed to enhance control and monitoring, it provides real-time adjustments and alerts that protect patients from potential complications like nerve damage or prolonged ischemia.

Key Clinical Applications:

• Orthopedic surgeries (knee arthroscopy, ACL repairs)

• Trauma and fracture management

• Limb amputations

• Hand and foot surgeries

• Plastic and reconstructive procedures

Whether used in minor procedures or complex surgeries, the Zimmer ATS 2000 delivers the accuracy and reliability that surgical teams demand.

Key Features of the Zimmer ATS 2000 Tourniquet System

1. Microprocessor-Controlled Pressure Regulation

The system uses advanced microprocessor technology to deliver:

• Accurate pressure levels based on limb occlusion

• Continuous monitoring of set vs. actual pressure

• Automatic compensation for any fluctuations

This ensures the safest and most effective pressure application throughout the surgery.

2. Self-Check Calibration Technology

Zimmer’s Self-Check Calibration™ feature allows the system to automatically perform a safety and accuracy check at startup. This reduces errors caused by incorrect setup or faulty calibration, ensuring the unit is ready for every procedure.

3. Single Port, Single Cuff Operation

The ATS 2000 is designed for single-limb procedures and features:

• One pressure output port

• Support for a wide range of reusable and disposable cuffs

• Quick-connect fittings for fast setup

This simplifies the workflow for surgical teams and minimizes room for error.

4. Intuitive, User-Friendly Interface

With a large, backlit LED screen and push-button controls, the ATS 2000 is easy to operate, even in high-pressure surgical environments.

Display features:

• Set pressure

• Actual pressure

• Inflation time

• System status

• Audible and visual alerts

This clean design helps ensure smooth operation, even in emergencies.

5. Integrated Safety Alarms and Alerts

To protect the patient and surgical staff, the ATS 2000 includes:

• Over-pressure alarm

• Cuff leakage detection

• Inflator malfunction alerts

• Power failure indicators

• Timer alerts for ischemia duration

These safeguards ensure that pressure is applied only within safe limits and that any malfunction is instantly communicated to the operator.

6. Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP) Compatibility

While the ATS 2000 does not automatically calculate LOP, it is fully compatible with external LOP systems. This allows surgical staff to determine the minimum pressure needed to occlude blood flow, ensuring both effectiveness and patient safety.
