Summary |
This technology is an integrated laparoscopic electrosurgical device with proximal active smoke evacuation, featuring the proprietary Electrocautery-Evacuation Synchronizer (EES) system. Compared to trocar-based smoke evacuation and smoke-reducing coated electrodes, it offers superior efficiency and real-time smoke removal. The device enhances surgical safety, improves ergonomic control, and is compatible with a wide range of electrosurgical and suction systems. |
Scientific Breakthrough |
This device improves visibility and safety in minimally invasive surgery by integrating smoke evacuation directly at the electrosurgical tip. Experiments show a 95% smoke removal rate, reducing surgery interruptions, and shortening patient anesthesia time. Additionally, the high-efficiency smoke evacuation maintains intra-abdominal pressure, and protects staff by removing 99% harmful particles. The ergonomic hand control replaces foot pedals, enhancing ease of use and clinical efficiency. |
Industrial Applicability |
This technology addresses smoke accumulation and hazardous exposure in minimally invasive surgery through an integrated solution featuring proximal real-time smoke evacuation and high-efficiency filtration. It effectively removes intra-abdominal smoke, enhances endoscopic visibility, and filters over 99% of VOCs and harmful particles. By reducing exposure risks for medical staff, it supports precision surgery and ESG-aligned occupational health, clinical value and global market potential. |
