POWERSEAL instruments can be used on vessels (arteries, veins, pulmonary arteries, pulmonary veins) up to and including 7 mm, lymphatics, and tissue bundles. POWERSEAL instruments are indicated for use in general surgery and such surgical specialties as urologic, colorectal, bariatric, vascular, thoracic, and gynecologic. Procedures may include, but are not limited to, Nissen fundoplication, colectomy, cholecystectomy, adhesiolysis, sleeve gastrectomy, hysterectomy, and oophorectomy.
The POWERSEAL device is intended for single use only, and reusing or re-sterilizing is ill-advised as it could cause excessive wear and degradation of device performance. Changes in material characteristics, such as corrosion, dulled edges, deformation or splitting, may impact the strength of the device. Reusing and/or re-sterilizing can also cause cross-contamination. These risks may potentially impact patient safety. The higher the current flow and the longer the current is applied, the greater the possibility of unintended thermal damage to tissue, especially during use on small appendages.
