Minimally Invasive Therapies / Products / Surgical Stapling / Endo GIA™ Reinforced Reload with Tri-Staple™ Technology

Overview

The Reinforcement is Preloaded.
The Confidence is Built In.

The Endo GIA™ reinforced reload with Tri-Staple™ technology is the only stapler with preloaded buttress material that provides improved ease of use and reducted waste in the OR.1 Compatible with both our manual and powered handles, this integrated reinforcement supports the benefits of Tri-Staple technology while reducing acute bleeding.2

Features

  • Reduces acute bleeding at the staple line when compared to non-buttressed reloads on small bowel2
  • Provides a higher leak pressure point when compared to non-buttressed reloads in in-vivo canine bowel3,†
  • Reduces the rate of postoperative air leakage4
  • In a preclinical thoracic model, the reinforced reload performed comparably to SeamGuard™* with respect to impact to adjacent tissue structures5,†
  • May save a hospital between 7-10 minutes of OR time per procedure due to the preloaded benefit1
