Overview

44% fewer leaks1,†,††  

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

That means you can have consistent performance in circular stapling — over a broad range of tissue.([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00069039, EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology design verification report.

  • Greater leak protection vs. the Ethicon™* CDH1,†,‡
  • Less stress on tissue during compression and clamping([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00200393 rev 2, Comparison of circular staplers: tissue compression profiles as determined by 2-D static axisymmetric finite element analysis (FEA). June 17, 2021.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),†,‡‡,§§

Made For Today’s Procedures

Introduce next-gen circular stapling to your OR

Our EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology was designed to support anastomosis with:

  • A sloped cartridge face that puts less stress on tissue during compression and clamping6,†,Ω
  • Improved audible feedback([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00073061, Tulip formative evaluation summary.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),†,‡‡
  • A Tilt-top™ anvil to facilitate removal
  • 30% more staples than staplers with the same lumen diameters([FOOTNOTE=Zhang J. The use of the language “EEA™ circular stapler with Tri-Staple™ technology has 30 percent more staples in the staplers of the same lumen diameters as compared to two row circular staplers” in marketing materials [memorandum]. North Haven, CT: Medtronic.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),§

We developed features like those because procedures — and tissue thicknesses — vary.

The Extra Row Matters

See how Tri-Staple™ technology stacks up to two-row circular staplers

Our EEA™ circular stapler delivers three-rows of varied height staples for consistency across a broad range of tissue thicknesses.3,4,5,†,§ Together with a sloped cartridge face3,†, it provides less stress on tissue6,†,‡‡ compared to Ethicon™* CDH and DST Series™ technology.

Tri-Staple™ technology also delivers:

  • 44% fewer leaks vs. Ethicon™* CDH1,†,††
  • Greater perfusion allowed into the staple line2,§,Ω
  • 62% reduction in firing force vs. the Ethicon™* CDH circular staplers([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00183973_B, Firing force and audible feedback test report. July 2020.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),†
  • The same inner/outer lumen diameters as DST Series™ technology3,†

  • §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.

  • ††Refers to the healing period (generally through day 28) that was evaluated in multiple preclinical (canine) survival studies designed to assess device safety and efficacy.
