ECHELON FLEX™ Powered Vascular Stapler
Only the ECHELON FLEX Powered Vascular Stapler with Advanced Placement Tip gives you a narrower anvil,* thinner shaft† and more articulation‡ than Endo GIA™ Curved Tip Reload with Tri-Staple™ Technology.
Incredibly Precise
Narrower anvil* and thinner shaft†. More articulation compared to Endo GIA™ Curved Tip Reload with Tri-Staple™ Technology.‡ Watch Dr. Zane Hammoud at Henry Ford Hospital perform a PV transection during a right upper lobectomy with ECHELON FLEX Powered Vascular Stapler.
ECHELON FLEX Staplers Have Been Associated with Improved Clinical and Economic Outcomes
ECHELON FLEX™ Powered Staplers vs. Medtronic non-powered staplers has been associated with reduction in hemostasis-related complications,§ shorter length of stay,¶ and improved hemostasis outcomes without increasing cost** in VATS Lobectomy (Video Assisted Thoracoscopic Surgery).
More Flexibility During Placement
11% greater articulation in each direction‡ vs Endo GIA™ Tri-Staple™. ECHELON Flex Powered Vascular Stapler provides a span of 100° which may make it easier to access structures in the tight thoracic cavity.††
