SureForm with SmartFire technology Achieve more with your stapler.

Achieve more with your stapler SureForm™ is a new breed of stapler. At its core is SmartFire technology, which monitors tissue compression before and during firing, making automatic adjustments to optimize the staple line. A 120° cone of articulation gives you the freedom to approach tissue where it naturally lies, potentially reducing the need to pull it towards the stapler.1 When you choose SureForm staplers, you can reduce uncertainty and increase stapling performance like never before.1 1.

Compatible with the da Vinci X® and da Vinci Xi® surgical systems

More maneuverability A 120° cone of articulation gives you the freedom to maneuver your stapler and position it where you prefer. Utilize a greater range of motion than the human hand or leading laparoscopic staplers with SureForm staplers.* Powered Echelon Flex SIGNIA / Endo GIA Ultra * Compared to Endo GIA Ultra with Tri-Staple technology, SIGNIA with Tri-Staple 2.0 technology, and Powered Echelon Plus with GST as of March 2

More intelligence With one press of a pedal you activate SmartFire technology, which measures tissue compression before and during firing. SmartFire technology uses more than 1,000 measurements per second* to make automatic adjustments to the firing process as staples are being formed and as the transection is being made. This advanced firing technology is easy to use and helps ensure a more consistent staple line, all while preventing damage across a range of tissue thicknesses.** ** Results from testing on file ** Compared to Endo GIA Ultra with Tri-Staple technology, SIGNIA with...

Percentage of optimally formed staples in thick tissue (>4mm)f Powered Echelon Flex with GST Endo GIA Ultra with Tri-Staple SIGNIA with Tri-Staple 2.0 t Testing performed with black reloads on in vivo porcine stomach tissue with both 45mm and 60mm devices. Sureform 60 is significantly better than Endo GIA and SIGNIA in thick tissue. Sureform 45 is significantly better than all the three staplers in thick tissue. Data on file as of March 2019.

Successful tissue approximation rate* Powered Echelon Flex with GST t Testing performed with black reloads on in vivo porcine stomach tissue with both 45mm and 60mm devices. SureForm 45 & SureForm 60 are significantly better than Echelon Flex. Data as of March 2019.

More consistency SmartFire’s automatic measurements and adjustments during firing help you maintain control of the tissue. This ensures cut line integrity is not lost, and the expected length of transection is achieved. These consistent results can help you avoid using an unanticipated reload, potentially reducing cost. Deliver a more consistent cut line length across thin and thick tissue.* Figure A: Average cutline length (60 mm staplers) 56 55 54 Tissue Thickness Powered Echelon Flex with GST Endo GIA Ultra with Tri-Staple SIGNIA with Tri-Staple 2.0 Figure B: Average cutline length (45...

More precision With the full cone of articulation and anvil centric design of SureForm™ staplers, you can position the device exactly where you want, minimizing tension on the target tissue and stress to the surrounding anatomy. Less tension on target tissue and less stress on surrounding tissue during positioning and clamping† Tension on target tissue 10 Stress on surrounding tissue 1.0 MPa Average tension applied to target tissue 0.9 MPa while positioning and clamping stapler 0.84 0.84 Measured in newtons as a unit of force Endo GIA Ultra SIGNIA with with Tri-Staple Tri-Staple 2.0 Powered...
