Real-time feedback

The Signia™ stapling system’s real-time feedback before and during firing , allows you to make an informed decision about your staple load selection.1,†† This feedback is continually displayed during firing helping to support identification of areas along the staple line where higher forces were experienced.2,3,† It means you’re always in charge and you still make the decisions. 
Consistent performance

The Signia™ stapling system’s sensing technology is able to distinguish between average and thicker, more challenging tissue.2-4,† As the device fires, it uses force-sensing technology to adjust firing speeds to optimize staple formation when stapling in variable tissue thicknesses. 2,3,†  
Single-handed stapling

With the Signia™ stapling system, you get a fully powered stapling platform that can be used with a single hand.5 Rotation, articulation, clamping and firing are all fully powered.5 Signia™ stapler allows you to free up your other hand when stapling and stay focused on the surgical site.5,§
