Why Orthopedic Practices Are Turning to TRUFLO ORTHO
In orthopedic surgery, especially total joint
arthroplasty – time, clarity, and consistency
are critical. Yet suction line clogging from
surgical debris remains a frequent, costly,
and disruptive challenge. It slows surgeons,
clouds the surgical field, increases risks, and burns precious minutes in the operating room.
TruFlo Ortho is designed to eliminate
suction line clogs.

ENGINEERED FOR ORTHOPEDICS
TruFlo Ortho combines advanced engineering with surgical insight to deliver uninterrupted suction and a consistently clear operative field.
PATENTED TRUFLO FILTER
Captures bone chips, adipose tissue, congealed blood, and cement particles without limiting suction, allowing fluid to flow around the filter basket, to maintain full suction pressure throughout the procedure.

As noted in the “Journal of Anesthesia” the cost of surgery is approximately $63 per minute.
95% of procedures are interupted by handpeice clogs adding 1 to 2 minutes to clear each clog.
15% of procedures have simple inline clogs that add at least four minutes per clog to clear.
4% face complex clogs adding at least 8 minutes of downtime per clog. Resolving these clogs often requires complete replacement of suction equipment.
Those minutes add up. Not just in cost, but in clinical risk:
The Journal of Surgical Research links longer surgeries to higher risks—blood loss, anesthesia issues, and infections.
Delays impact patient safety, staff focus, and a facility’s bottom line.
TruFlo Ortho keeps the surgical field clear, helping teams stay efficient and focused.
