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.

ENSEAL™ X1 Curved Jaw Tissue Sealer
The ENSEAL™ X1 Curved Jaw Tissue Sealer, a part of our advanced bipolar ENSEAL™ portfolio, delivers secure sealing.1A This device has a curved tapered tip, and features simplified steps for use with one-handed2, 360-degree rotation3-5, separate seal and cut buttons4-5, and an efficient, ergonomic grip.2B
Staplers
ECHELON™ 3000 Stapler
The ECHELON™ 3000 Stapler was designed to accommodate each patient's unique anatomy, providing consistency across every staple line. It enables better access1A and more control2B over each transection, making it easier to tailor procedures to your patient's unique needs.

Staplers
ECHELON CIRCULAR™ Powered Stapler
Leaks during surgery can lead to serious complications, especially in challenging cases. The ECHELON CIRCULAR™ Powered Stapler significantly reduced leaks at the staple line and produced greater perfusion compared to the Medtronic EEA™ Circular Stapler with Tri-Staple™ Technology.1,2A The device combines two breakthrough innovations—3D Stapling and Gripping Surface Technologies—on one consistent and reliable powered platform.

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
