Altrus ® Thermal Tissue Fusion System

Product catalog summary

Overview
The ALTRUS® Thermal Tissue Fusion System is a proprietary medical device designed for vessel sealing and tissue dissection in both laparoscopic and open surgical procedures. It combines advanced bi-polar technology with dissection capabilities, offering a versatile solution for surgeons.

Key Features

Temperature Control: The system uses a closed feedback loop for precise energy delivery, ensuring effective tissue sealing and dissection.
Rapid Seal Cycles: Provides sealing and bladeless cutting with cycle times of 2-4 seconds, minimizing lateral tissue damage and potentially reducing procedure times.
Reliability: Capable of sealing vessels and tissue bundles up to 7mm in diameter, with seals that withstand three times normal systolic pressure.
Clear Visualization: Emits minimal smoke, maintaining a clear field of view during laparoscopic procedures.
Ergonomic Design: The handpiece is designed to accommodate various hand sizes, reducing surgeon fatigue.
Minimal Thermal Spread: The system produces significantly less thermal spread compared to similar devices, enhancing safety near critical structures.

Performance Comparison
The ALTRUS system demonstrates superior performance in burst pressure and thermal spread compared to other devices like LigaSure and Harmonic Ace, as shown in comparative studies.

Product Specifications

Energy Sources: Available for U.S., Canada, and international markets.
Handpieces: Available in 5mm and 10mm sizes with various shaft lengths.
Accessories: Includes carts, adapter plates, and manuals.

No Sticking, Dulling or Jamming Unlike advanced bi-polar systems systems, the bladeless cut function eliminates frustrating instances of the mechanical cutting mechanism dulling, jamming and charred tissue sticking. Even Energy Application The unique parallel closure mechanism provides uniform pressure across the jaw surface for consistent energy delivery to tissue. Surgeon Comfort The ergonomic design of the handpiece accommodates a variety of hand sizes (glove size 5 ½ to 8 ½) while the rapid seal cycles may reduce surgeon hand fatigue. Minimal Thermal Spread The precise temperature control...
