Category Surgical Drainage Typical Use Provide closed suction drainage of postoperative fluid collections. Description A soft silicone drain connected to a compressible bulb reservoir that creates gentle negative pressure to evacuate serous fluid, blood, or exudate from surgical sites, reducing hematoma and seroma formation and facilitating wound healing. JP drains are commonly used after abdominal, … Read more
Category Obstetrics Monitoring Typical Use Direct fetal heart rate monitoring when external signals are inadequate. Description A small spiral electrode applied to the fetal scalp through the cervix to obtain a direct electrocardiographic fetal heart rate signal when external Doppler monitoring is unreliable, such as in maternal obesity, excessive fetal movement, or during labor with … Read more
Category Orthopedic Surgery Typical Use Deliver controlled force to osteotomes or implants. Description A hammer like instrument used to deliver measured force to osteotomes, chisels, or implants during orthopedic and dental procedures, enabling controlled bone manipulation and implant seating. Mallet design balances weight and handle ergonomics to provide predictable impact while minimizing surgeon fatigue and … Read more
Category Microsurgery Suturing Typical Use Suture small caliber vessels and nerves with minimal trauma. Description Ultra fine, curved needles designed for microvascular anastomosis that allow precise needle passage through delicate vessel walls while minimizing tissue crush and facilitating secure, watertight sutures.
Category Nutrition Supportive Care Typical Use Deliver precise enteral nutrition via feeding tubes. Description A programmable pump that administers liquid nutrition formulas through nasogastric, nasoenteric, or percutaneous gastrostomy jejunostomy tubes at controlled rates and volumes to meet caloric and fluid needs in hospitalized and homebound patients. Enteral pumps support continuous, intermittent, or bolus feeding regimens … Read more
Category Vestibular Testing Diagnostic Typical Use Record eye movements to evaluate vestibular function and nystagmus. Description A system combining infrared video goggles and computerized analysis to record and quantify spontaneous, gaze evoked, and positional nystagmus as well as responses to caloric stimulation, aiding diagnosis of peripheral versus central vestibular disorders and guiding vestibular rehabilitation. VNG … Read more
Category Pulmonary Therapeutic Typical Use Ablate endobronchial lesions using extreme cold. Description A flexible probe that delivers cryogenic temperatures to freeze and necrose endobronchial tumors or granulation tissue during bronchoscopy, providing palliative airway debulking with limited bleeding and preserving surrounding tissue architecture; requires careful patient selection and airway management.
