Product Description
The core safety mechanism: a protective footplate or shroud extends beneath the blade to track the bone and physically block the blade from damaging the pericardium, great vessels, and lungs.
The specialized motor delivers rapid blade movement, ensuring a quick, clean, and smooth cut through the sternum, minimizing heat generation and reducing overall surgical time.
The T-08 is shaped to provide a secure, comfortable grip that allows the surgeon to maintain a precise midline trajectory down the sternum, which is essential for proper chest closure.
Engineered to dampen operational vibration, improving surgeon control and reducing fatigue during the critical step of dividing the bone.
The primary use is to safely and precisely divide the sternum for access in adult and pediatric cardiac surgery (e.g., CABG, valve repair/replacement).
Used whenever broad, central access to the mediastinum or thoracic cavity is required.
Applicable in revision surgery, often using specialized blades designed to safely cut through previously healed bone or fixation wires.

The Sternum Saw T-08 is a highly specialized surgical power instrument used by cardiothoracic surgeons to perform a median sternotomy. Unlike general orthopedic saws, the T-08 is built around a paramount safety mechanism—a depth guard—that ensures the high-speed blade cuts only the sternal bone while shielding the vital structures (like the heart and lungs) lying directly beneath it.
The T-08 is essential in virtually every open-heart surgery, including procedures for coronary artery bypass, heart valve replacement, and aortic root repair. Its precision is also required in certain trauma and oncology cases where rapid, safe, and controlled access to the mediastinum is necessary.
The main advantage is the unmatched level of safety it provides during sternal division. The protective footplate dramatically reduces the risk of iatrogenic injury to the major arteries and veins in the mediastinum—a complication that can lead to catastrophic intraoperative hemorrhage. Additionally, the clean, quick cut minimizes bone trauma, facilitating better healing and sternal stability postoperatively.
The high-speed cutting action (whether reciprocating or oscillatory) ensures the bone is cut efficiently, minimizing the time the blade spends in contact with the bone. Biomechanically, this minimizes frictional heat generation, preventing thermal injury to the bone margins and maintaining the viability of the bone for later closure and healing.
After soft tissue dissection, the surgeon holds the T-08 firmly, aligning the blade along the exact midline of the sternum. The saw is activated, and the safety footplate is guided carefully to penetrate the posterior cortex of the sternum. Once engaged, the saw is driven smoothly down the length of the sternum, with the footplate gliding between the bone and the pericardium, ensuring the blade never contacts the deeper structures.
The clean bone cut produced by the T-08 facilitates a more secure sternal closure (typically using stainless steel wires). Postoperative care is supported by the saw’s contribution to minimizing bleeding and bone trauma, which enhances the rate of sternal healing and reduces the risk of post-sternotomy mediastinitis, a serious complication.
The Sternum Saw T-08 is a critical, safety-focused instrument for cardiothoracic surgery. Its specialized design, centered on protecting underlying organs during the median sternotomy, provides surgeons with the high degree of precision, control, and safety required for this life-saving procedure.
Depending on the model, sternum saws use either a high-frequency reciprocating (in-and-out) motion or a rotary cutting action, both integrated with a depth guard to ensure the cut is linear and controlled.
The safety footplate is designed to automatically engage and protect the structures regardless of minor variations in sternal thickness, as its function relies on tracking the bone's posterior surface.
Yes, the T-08 is often used for re-entry, but it requires specialized blades with rounded or non-aggressive tips to carefully cut through previous bone fusions or wire without damaging the underlying tissue, which is often adhered directly to the bone.
Surgical power tools, especially saws, can be loud. The T-08 is designed with acoustic dampening materials and advanced motor technology to reduce noise emissions in the operating room, improving communication and reducing staff fatigue.
High speed is required to cut the sternal bone cleanly and quickly, minimizing the duration of vibration and reducing the generation of frictional heat, which is essential for patient comfort and preventing thermal injury.
