Overview

Less Sticking.3,‡ Less Buildup.3,† More Efficient Procedures.3,§

Nonstick nano-coating technology enhances the performance of the LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device.

The multifunctional LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device now delivers even greater procedural efficiency.2,3,§

Because — compared to the legacy device — the new nonstick nano-coated jaws:

  • Reduce eschar buildup3,†
  • Decrease instances of sticking4,‡
  • Lead to fewer jaw cleanings — and make cleanings easier3,§

So you get these benefits in addition to the performance you expect from the LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device.

Features

Enhanced Dissection.5,Ω  Intuitive Control.5,†† Greater Efficiency.3,‡‡

Every feature of the nonstick nano-coated LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device is designed to benefit you and patients.

We engineered our multifunctional LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device to provide efficiency throughout the procedure.6,§§ Now, we’ve taken that efficiency to the next level — by putting nonstick nano-coating on the jaws.3,‡‡

Multifunctional flexibility

With the LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device you get the benefits of:

  • A one-step vessel sealer2
  • A Maryland dissector for enhanced blunt dissection5,Ω Ω
  • An atraumatic grasper to securely grasp tissue5,Ω Ω
  • Cold scissors to leave the critical decision to cut in your hands2,6

Multifunctional performance

The LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device delivers:

  • Improved access compared to straight jaws6,††
  • Improved tip visualization compared to straight jaws6,†††
  • A jaw designed to follow the curvature of the uterus or stomach6,†††
  • Easy skeletonization of vessels6,†††
  • A nonstick nano-coating for improved efficiency6,‡‡

Three lengths to meet different procedural needs

The LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device is available in three lengths:

23 cm

37 cm

44 cm

TECHNOLOGY

Reliable Performance. Greater Efficiency.2,§

We added nonstick nano-coating technology on the LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device to help you tackle challenges both big and small.

The new LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device is designed to help you treat patients — reliably and efficiently.2,§

Because we combined the benefits of nonstick nano-coating technology with the proven performance of LigaSure™ vessel-sealing technology.

Nano-coating is a highly controlled, thin-film coating with uniform thickness. It covers the entire jaws of a LigaSure™ device without impacting the intelligent vessel-sealing algorithms of Valleylab™ energy platforms.

Reduce sticking3,‡ improve efficiency2,§

For the LigaSure™ Maryland jaw device, compared to its uncoated counterpart, that means: 

  • Less eschar buildup3,†
  • Less sticking4,‡
  • Fewer jaw cleanings3,§

The net benefit is smoother, more efficient procedures.3,§

The confidence of control and consistency

LigaSure™ technology has been setting the standard of care for vessel sealing for nearly two decades.

LigaSure™ technology uses the body’s own collagen and elastin to create a permanent seal that can withstand three times normal systolic blood pressure.7 It’s been used in more than 19 million procedures worldwide.8,‡‡‡  And is supported by an ever-growing body of clinical evidence.

With an average seal cycle of one to four seconds in most surgical situations,9 LigaSure™ technology can seal vessels up to and including 7 mm, lymphatics, and tissue bundles. It also eliminates the guesswork — and minimizes thermal spread10 — by automatically discontinuing energy delivery when the seal cycle is complete.9

Made even better by the Valleylab™ FT10 energy platform

The LigaSure™ Maryland jaw portfolio works great when powered by the ForceTriad™ energy platform with 3.6 software and higher. For optimal performance, use it with the Valleylab™ FT10 energy platform.

The Valleylab™ FT10 energy platform makes LigaSure™ devices better than ever.9,11
