Medtronic 23-112-1 Aquamantys 6.0 Bipolar Sealer (x)

The Medtronic 23-112-1 Aquamantys 6.0 Bipolar Sealer is a cutting-edge surgical device designed to provide hemostasis and tissue sealing during a wide range of procedures. Leveraging proprietary Transcollation® technology, this bipolar sealer combines radiofrequency (RF) energy with saline to minimize blood loss while maintaining tissue integrity. The Aquamantys system is particularly beneficial in surgeries requiring meticulous blood management, such as orthopedic, spinal, and trauma procedures.

Key Features and Benefits

1. Transcollation® Technology: The Aquamantys 6.0 Bipolar Sealer employs Medtronic’s advanced Transcollation technology, which integrates RF energy with saline. This technology allows for simultaneous hemostasis and tissue sealing by denaturing collagen and elastin in tissue, effectively reducing bleeding while keeping the tissue moist. The saline prevents charring, ensuring consistent and reliable performance throughout the procedure.

2. Versatile Application: This device is engineered for use in a variety of surgical settings, including orthopedic, spine, and soft tissue procedures. Its versatility makes it an ideal choice for surgeons looking to enhance blood management in high-demand surgeries. The Aquamantys 6.0 is commonly used in procedures such as joint arthroplasty, spinal fusion, and tumor resection, where precise control over bleeding is critical.

3. Controlled Hemostasis: The bipolar sealer’s design allows for controlled hemostasis without causing excessive thermal damage to surrounding tissues. By keeping tissue temperatures low, the Aquamantys 6.0 reduces the risk of collateral damage and improves patient outcomes. This level of control is essential in delicate surgical areas where maintaining tissue viability is crucial.

4. Efficient and User-Friendly Design: The Medtronic Aquamantys 6.0 features an ergonomic, hand-held design that allows surgeons to work with precision and comfort. The device is lightweight, easy to maneuver, and provides intuitive control over saline delivery and energy application. Its user-friendly design reduces surgical time, leading to more efficient procedures and better patient throughput.

5. Minimizing Blood Loss: By offering effective hemostasis and sealing tissue simultaneously, the Aquamantys 6.0 significantly reduces intraoperative and postoperative blood loss. This reduction in blood loss can decrease the need for transfusions, lower the risk of complications, and shorten recovery time. This device’s efficiency in managing bleeding contributes to overall better surgical outcomes and enhances patient safety.

6. Comprehensive Coverage in Surgery: With a 6.0 cm active sealing surface, this device offers broad coverage, allowing for efficient sealing over large areas. This feature is particularly useful in surgeries that involve extensive tissue planes, enabling quick hemostasis with minimal passes.

Applications

The Medtronic Aquamantys 6.0 Bipolar Sealer is ideal for use in:

Orthopedic surgeries (e.g., joint replacements)
Spinal procedures (e.g., spinal fusion)
