HOLD FAST WITH EVERY PASS

1 HOLD FAST WITH EVERY PASS ETHICON INTRODUCES NEW STRATAFIX SPIRAL KNOTLESS TISSUE CONTROL DEVICES A comprehensive portfolio for multiple surgical applications. With significantly more points of fixation than traditional sutures, STRATAFIX Spiral Devices give surgeons more consistent tension control over every pass and combine the security and strength of interrupted closure with more efficiency than continuous closure. 1-4

2 Secure every pass with NEW STRATAFIX Spiral Knotless Tissue Control Devices Ethicon introduces STRATAFIX Spiral Devices a portfolio of products with unique anchoring technology that provides a combination of more consistent control, security, and more efficiency during closure 1-4 The anchors are formed from within the device in a spiral pattern. The bidirectional technology is appropriate for several closure techniques 1 With significantly more points of fixation than traditional sutures, STRATAFIX Spiral Devices give surgeons more consistent tension control over every pass, and combine the strength and security of interrupted closure with more efficiency than continuous closure. 1-4

3 More consistent tension control and approximation with each pass * Unique anchor design provides multiple points of fixation along the suture line, allowing tension on the suture to be maintained during closure Compared to traditional sutures, STRATAFIX Spiral Devices enable surgeons to easily manage tension and control approximation with each pass Strength and security of interrupted suturing without knot-related complications 1-4 Anchors running along the length of STRATAFIX Spiral Devices provide secure fixation, eliminating the need for knots In preclinical studies, multiple cuts to a STRATAFIX Spiral Device did not result in tissue separation 1,2,4 More efficient than continuous suturing * No need for an assistant to follow the suture With equal strength and security, STRATAFIX Spiral Devices can close wounds substantially faster than using an interrupted technique 1-4,10-13 *Compared to traditional sutures.
