SutureAssist(TM) is a Unique Device for the Single-Handed Dispensing of Sterile Needles and Sutures

Reno, Nevada, May 22, 2009 - (HSMN NewsFeed) - SutureAssist(TM) solves the problem of dislodging the press-fit needle from the lightweight tray without disturbing its position on the Mayo stand thereby promoting safety and improving patient outcome.

Safety & Efficacy

Intraoperative and postoperative risks increase in proportion to the length of time in which the patient remains anesthetized during surgery. By enabling the surgeon to more quickly close, potentially detrimental effects to the patient spent can be mitigated. Further, secure housing of needles reduces the risk of needle stick incidents to the surgical team.

  • Faster closure time lessens the chance of unnecessary bleeding, trauma, etc. and lowers patient risk.
  • One-handed operation: enables scrub tech to maintain exposure and traction and maintain eyes-on patient.
  • Enhanced efficiency in hanDover of loaded needle driver maintains rhythm and pace of surgery.
  • Improved physician and scrub tech's efficiency translates to shorter OR time.
