Intuitive announces u.s. food and drug administration clearance of two innovative technologies

Intuitive announced u.s. food and drug administration clearance of two innovative technologies for two of the company’s da vinci® surgical systems to help improve procedures that require sealing. the company's e-100 generator is its first internally developed robotic generator to power two key instruments on the da vinci x® and xi™ systems. vessel sealer extend is the instrument in the da vinci energy sealing portfolio today, and the new synchroseal instrument offers enhanced capabilities in general surgery. the e-100 is intuitive’s first generator and is offered as an upgrade to power vessel sealer extend and synchroseal. synchroseal will enable a surgeon to perform rapid one-step sealing and transection with a single pedal press.  synchroseal uses advanced bipolar energy from its raised cut electrode to transect tissue then cool down quickly, and will allow surgeons to move on to the next step. with its wristed articulation, its rapid sealing cycle, and refined curved jaw, synchroseal offers enhanced versatility to the da vinci energy portfolio.
