Overview

Meet the first powered mesh fixation device on the market.([FOOTNOTE=Based on memorandum RE00450435 Rev A, MaxTack™ first motorized fixation device memo report. March 2023.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])

The MaxTack™ device puts powered, stronger mesh fixation†,‡,([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal report RE00437048, MaxTack™ device fixation strength claims. January 2023.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]) comfortably within your grasp§,||,([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal report RE00422041, Rev A, Effects of instrument design on body posture with repetitive motions of a lap ventral hernia repair surgeon protocol.

Procedural benefits include:

  • Consistently stronger tack deployment from multiple firing angles†,‡,¶,#,††,2
  • Absorbable fixation that’s stronger than other absorbable†,‡,2 and permanent†,††,2 tackers
  • Secure fixation in tough, dense tissue like Cooper’s ligament†,([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal report RE00452165, MaxTack™ device groin indication benchtop testing.

Features built for hernia repair surgeons and patients

Stronger mesh fixation†,‡,2

The MaxTack™ device provides consistently stronger fixation than any other absorbable or permanent tacker, no matter your firing angle.†,‡,¶,††,2 Your minimally invasive hernia procedures can benefit from:

  • Stronger fixation at a 90° angle of deployment than permanent†,††,2 and absorbable†,‡,2 fixation tackers
  • Stronger fixation than other absorbable tackers (straight and articulated) when tacking from challenging non-90° firing angles, including 45° and 60°†,¶,2
  • A unique tack design with optimized features that securely fixate a variety of meshes, including large-pore constructions7,([FOOTNOTE=Based on memorandum RE00452198 Rev A, MaxTack™ device minimizing tissue attachment memo. March 2023.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])
  • Significant tack absorption in three to five months after implantation, with absorption essentially complete within one year†,([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal report RE00438086, MaxTack™ device in-vitro mass loss study. December 2022.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=])

The next step in hernia mesh fixation technology

Innovative fixation at the pull of a tab

The MaxTack™ device delivers easy-to-use,§,||,3–4 innovative hernia repair technology straight out of the box — no assembly required.11 At the pull of a yellow activation tab, two 9V alkaline batteries are ready to power the MaxTack™ device’s push-button firing mechanism, consistently deploying preloaded absorbable tacks while providing you with audible and LED color-coded feedback.||,11–12 An in-line handle design results in greater hand comfort and maneuverability,§,||,3–4 while color-coded tacks (25 violet followed by 5 green) alert you when the tack count is running low.2,13
