Covidien Endo Gia Universal 12mm stapler- 030403

Single use, reloadable laparoscopic articulating (22? and 45? in both directions) linear cutting instrument, shaft rotating (360?) for resection, transection and anastomosis.

 

The stapler places two triple, staggered rows of titanium staples and simultaneously the knife divides the tissue in between. The instrument is designed for multiple use during a single surgical procedure: it can be reloaded up to 25 times for a total of 25 applications. The disposable loading unit can articulate at 22? and 45? in both directions by moving the proximal knob on the stapler.

 

The size of the staples is determined by the selection of the 2.0 mm, 2.5 mm, 3.5 mm or 4.8 mm single-use loading unit (SULU). The Endo GIA* UNIVERSAL stapler will accommodate any of the SULU sizes that are available in the 30 mm, 45 mm and 60 mm lines.
