procedures on the colon
with the use of ThermoStapler®
Release of the ascending colon by closing and cutting blood vessels.
Closing the blood vessels using the ThermoStapler® instrument.
While closing blood vessels,
a distance of 2 cm from the colon membrane should be maintained.
Stomach resection. Cutting sealed blood vessels with scissors.
The ThermoStapler® vessel sealing system enables permanent sealing of large blood vessels and tissues during open and laparoscopic surgery.
The ThermoStapler® system, designed by EMED, is an alternative to the traditional vessel sealing method using many ligatures and staplers.
ThermoStapler® system is based on modern bipolar technique.
It enables reliable vessel sealing and minimizes the patient's blood loss during the procedure.
As a result, less time for blood vessel sealing, less materials for surgical field drying and less blood units administered to the patient are required.
main advantages
- physical pressure onto the vessel with the use of a special bipolar instrument
- a generator administering high frequency and low voltage current which does not cause sparks during the sealing process
- constant monitoring of the tissue impedance during the process of sealing
- microprocessor control ensuring the repeated coagulation effect
- automatic switch-off of the generator at the moment of achieving the optimal sealing of the vessel, confirmed with a sound signal
- the possibility to select the level of intensity of the effect lower intensity means higher precision and depth of the coagulation, higher intensity means quicker final effect
- the possibility to connect two different ThermoStapler® instruments or to combine the vessel sealing technique with a traditional bipolar technique
