And with 360-degree rotation, you can reach any angle with confidence.1
Medtronic provides the following review of a publication comparing the use of absorbable ligation clip to metal and absorbable latch-closure clips in laparoscopic surgery.
†Animal data is not necessarily indicative of human clinical outcomes.
‡Results based on pre-clinical transverse-pull dislodgement tests.
§Bench test results may not necessarily be indicative of clinical performance.
ΩBased on bench top parallel pull tests of the Lapro-Clip™ 12 mm (REF# 8886848812) and Weck™* Medium/Large Hem-O-Lok™* (REF 544230) on large silastic tubing. Lapro-Clip™ system mean retention force (6.51 lbf, n = 10) was significantly greater (p < 0.05) than Weck™* (2.855 lbf, n = 6).
††Design does not contain metallic material that could affect risk of MRI scan.
