Insufflation needle
ENDOPATH™ Insufflation Needles
The ENDOPATH™ Pneumoneedle and Ultra Veress Insufflation Needles are surgical instrument used during minimally invasive procedures, particularly in laparoscopy, and are intended to establish pneumoperitoneum.1,2 The abdominal distension allows surgeons to see and operate on the internal structures more easily. Each device utilizes a spring-loaded, blunt stylet safety mechanism. Features of both devices include: 14-gauge stainless steel needle, attached at its proximal end to a plastic comfort handle containing a stopcock and a Luer lock connector for insufflating the abdominal cavity. The abdominal distension allows surgeons to see and operate on the internal structures more easily.1,2
Trocars
ENDOPATH XCEL™ Trocars
Trocars are the first point of contact into a patient during minimally invasive procedures and need to do many jobs - maximize visibility and maneuverability, enable surgical flow, and minimize exposure to pneumoperitoneum gas. ENDOPATH XCEL™ Trocars are designed to offer the control1,2A-D and consistency3-5E-G needed throughout the procedure from open to close.

Suture
MONOCRYL™ Plus Antibacterial (poliglecaprone 25) Suture
Surgical site infections (SSIs) are the most common type of hospital-acquired infection.1 Part of the Ethicon suture portfolio, MONOCRYL™ Plus Antibacterial Sutures provide the same handling and performance as traditional MONOCRYL™ (Poliglecaprone 25) Sutures while dependably providing antibacterial protection.2-9
Coated with triclosan, these absorbable sutures were associated with nearly 30% reduction in the risk of SSIs.10,11A Backed by the highest level of clinical evidence,8,12-16H these sutures offer an added layer of protection against the most common pathogens associated with SSIs in an in vitro study.2,4,5BC
