INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Zimmer Air Dermatome II is a skin grafting instrument that is intended to provide variable graft thickness and width
capabilities.
DESCRIPTION
The Zimmer Air Dermatome II (see figures 1, 2 , 3) is an air-powered surgical skin grafting instrument. The thickness
control adjustment ranges from 0, 0.004 in. (0.1 mm) to .024 in. (0.6 mm) in 0.002 in. (0.05 mm) increments.
Individual graft widths of 1 in., 1.5 in., 2 in., 3 in. and 4 in. (2.5 cm, 3.8 cm, 5.1 cm, 7.6 cm, 10.2 cm) are obtained with
five width plates (see figure 19). One stainless steel machine screw secures the plates to the underside of the
instrument (figure 21). The plates are easily fastened and removed with the screwdriver provided (figure 20).
The dermatome has a self-cooling rotary vane air motor. The motor is powered by water-pumped compressed dry
nitrogen (99.97% pure) or by medical-grade compressed air and provides nearly vibration-free power.

POWER SOURCE
Nitrogen (preferred) or medical-grade compressed air:
Compressed dry nitrogen is the preferred power source. Where nitrogen is not available, medical-grade compressed air
can be used. These gasses should meet the following specifications to ensure optimum safety for both patient and
instrument:
