DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR TONSILLECTOMY

BIZACT™ TONSILLECTOMY DEVICE OPTIMIZES THE PROCEDURE FROM START TO FINISH

Surgeons using the BiZact™ device are completing cases in about half the time1,4,5,†† compared to the Coblator™* device and electrocautery.  Because the BiZact™ device: 

  • Offers a fast and easy setup([FOOTNOTE=Based on internal test report #RE00073873 and #RE00079704, Independent surgeon and nurse feedback collected during Medtronic sponsored labs. January and February 2017.],[ANCHOR=],[LINK=]),₤
  • In‑line activation facilitates efficient sealing and transection
  • Reduces intraoperative bleeding1-3,§,Ω
