The NiTi™ product family of rings, clips, and appliers advance compression anastomosis surgeries and potentially yield a higher colon cancer survival rate. Efficiency and smart engineering have united to produce a range of simple mechanical tissue-closure devices.

In a recently conducted control study, the NiTi™ BioDynamix™ Anastomosis devices accelerated patients' recovery substantially, as measured by indicators such as duration of hospital stay and bowel movement resumption.

Features

An anastomosis performed with the NiTi™ ring or clip is less traumatic than a standard staple-based procedure.

The ring and clip are designed to exploit the natural human necrosis process.

Unlike stapling, which places staples permanently in the body, the ring or the clip are completely expelled through the digestive system within approximately 7-14 days.

The key components of the rings and the clips are made from Nitinol, a flexible shape memory alloy with strong biocompatibility and biomechanical compatibility.

NiTi's ring and clip appliers use a simple operating sequence.

The appliers are ergonomically designed for a comfortable, steady grip.

The NiTi™ product family of rings, clips, and appliers are tailored for a variety of surgical procedures, including open, laparoscopic or hand-assisted laparoscopic surgical procedures.

Benefits

For the patient (as indicated by patient studies)

Safe - Complete clip or ring expulsion, minimized invasiveness and reduced trauma make the device safe and effective.

Accelerates healing - Early trials indicate that there may be improvements in healing process and length of hospital stay.

For the surgeon

Easy to use - The appliers' design makes the instruments extremely easy to use with minimal training required and virtually no learning curve.

Innovation - The devices are engineered for use in emerging techniques such as advanced colectomies.

For procurement organizations

Less inventory - One ring size (27mm) and one clip size (30mm) replace a number of competitive sizes (25-34mm).
