Covidien ABSTACK30 Absorbatack Fixation Device is an absorbable tack fixation device, for use in laparoscopic hernia repair.
The NEW AbsorbaTack (ABSTACK30X) fixation device for laparoscopic hernia repair continues to deploy tacks when the shaft is flexed over 3 cm.
Covidien ABSTACK30 Absorbatack Fixation Device Features
Designed with patient comfort in mind
No metal required for fixation
Supports a minimally invasive approach through 5 mm shaft and easy-to-use design
Fixation strength
Provides strong temporary mesh fixation, with retention strength comparable to the â??gold standardâ?? ProTackâ?¢ fixation device at 1 week and 2 months in an animal model1
Peace of mind
Reduces the likelihood of inadvertent needle sticks in the OR, since no sharp piloting needles are required for deployment
Potentially fewer visceral attachments than permanent tack fixation1
Violet tack with black-dot visualization feature to optimize visibility
In Perfect sealed condition but past expiration date. Not for human use in the US.
Expiration dates have mostly to do with sterilization and not the integrity of the product. The manufacturers sterilize the products after they are packaged and it lasts so many years. The only products we caution customers about are ones that are absorbable or drug coated.
Echelon Endopath Staplers with gray, white, blue, gold, and green reloads deliver six staggered rows of staples with a single cut line in-between.

The Ethicon 8702H is a specific type of suture produced by Ethicon, a subsidiary of Johnson & Johnson and a leading manufacturer of surgical sutures and other medical devices. The product you mentioned, "7-0 Prolene Suture," refers to a specific size and type of suture.
Here are some key details about the Ethicon 8702H 7-0 Prolene Suture:
Suture Material: Prolene is the brand name for a synthetic, non-absorbable monofilament suture material made of polypropylene. Monofilament sutures like Prolene are smooth and reduce tissue drag, making them suitable for various surgical applications.
Size: The "7-0" designation indicates the size of the suture. In this case, it is a very fine suture. Suture sizes are denoted numerically, with smaller numbers indicating larger sizes.
Color: The "blue" in "blue monofilament" indicates the color of the suture. Suture colors are used to enhance visibility during surgery.
Non-Absorbable: Prolene sutures are non-absorbable, meaning they do not break down or dissolve over time. This characteristic makes them suitable for applications where long-term tissue support is required.
Indications: Prolene sutures are commonly used in various surgical procedures, including cardiovascular, ophthalmic, and plastic surgery. The choice of suture material and size depends on the specific requirements of the surgical procedure.
Here are some general features that you might find in KARL STORZ laparoscopes:
Diameter: Laparoscopes come in different diameters, and the choice depends on the specific surgical procedure and patient anatomy. Common diameters include 5mm and 10mm.
Angle of View: The angle of view is an important parameter. For instance, a laparoscope with a 30-degree angle provides a wide field of view, while a 0-degree laparoscope offers a straight-ahead view.
Autoclavable: Many laparoscopes are designed to be autoclaved, allowing for sterilization and reuse.
Optics: High-quality optics are crucial for clear visualization during surgery. KARL STORZ laparoscopes typically feature advanced optics for improved image quality.
Light Transmission: Efficient light transmission is essential for illuminating the surgical field. LED or xenon light sources are often used for this purpose.
