Overview

Staple line security times three.

EEA™ circular stapling now comes with our clinically proven Tri-Staple™ technology.

That means you can have the confidence and security1,2,3,†,‡ of three rows of varied height staples4 while your patients benefit from:

  • Less stress on tissue during compression and clamping5,†,Ω
  • The potential for greater perfusion at the staple line6,7,‡,§
  • †Preclinical results may not correlate with clinical performance in humans.
  • ‡Based on the addition of a third row of staples in the EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology, as compared to predicate two row device designs.
  • §Compared to two-row staplers.
  • ΩFinite element analysis (FEA) was used to determine the strain profiles of three circular staplers during clamp-up. The EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology demonstrated a graduated compression profile upon clamping.
