The AXIUS Needle Driver is a mechanical hand-held articulating laparoscopic device designed for complex and precise suturing.
Unlike traditional laparoscopic needle drivers, AXIUS allows the surgeon to make small articulation and rotational adjustments with just their fingertips. This enables precise needle positioning and delicate movements required for complex reconstructive suturing, while the mechanical design maintains tactile feedback of the tissue.
How it works
Fingertip Precision – Its patented Infinity Dial allows the user to make small articulation and rotational adjustments with their fingertips, allowing the precise needle positioning and delicate movements required for complex reconstructive suturing.
Optimal Needle Driving Motion – Combining fingertip rotation with adjustable articulation achieves the optimal movement for suturing: the ‘Articulated Roll’.
Unlike any other handheld suturing device, AXIUS drives the needle through the tissue precisely following the curve of the needle, allowing the user to treat the tissue gently even when suturing at extreme angles.
Benefits
- Enables complex suturing with robotic-like precision and dexterity
across a broad range of laparoscopic procedures. - Easily integrated within laparoscopic workflow – no dedicated team,
suite, large capital cost or change to procedure approach. - Reusable – cost spread over 10 procedures.
