The patent-pending modular forceps and accessories are said to be designed to provide surgeons added comfort while reducing per-procedure costs through the reduction of inventory and obsolescence.
According to the company, the ergonomic instruments offer a simpler assembly process for laparoscopic procedures. The modular ergonomic instruments (MEG) line is directed towards the laparoscopic market with estimated worldwide sales exceeding $425 million.
The company has also recently filed a 510(k) application with the FDA for its Icon GP generator. The Icon GP will be used as a stand-alone advanced general purpose generator as well as in conjunction with the company’s Polarian vessel sealing instruments currently under development.
