LigaSure™ Tissue Fusion Technology

with the ForceTriad™ Energy Platform

Overview

Valleylab’s LigaSure™ vessel sealing technology has been updated and improved. LigaSure™ technology and electrosurgery have been combined in the state-of-the- art ForceTriad™ energy platform to meet your monopolar bipolar, and LigaSure™ energy needs.

The ForceTriad™ energy platform utilizes TissueFect™ sensing technology, a Valleylab control system designed to precisely manage energy delivery, creating a range of options for desired tissue effect. TissueFect™ sensing technology has transformed standard vessel sealing of the past to tissue fusion for the future.

Benefits

Improved tissue sensing closed loop control: 3333 decisions per second vs. 200 decisions per second in the original LigaSure™ generator

LigaSure™ tissue fusion in the ForceTriad™ energy platform has faster fusion cycles, more flexible fusion zones and less desiccation than the original LigaSure™ generator because TissueFect™ sensing technology actively monitors changes in tissue impedance and provides a realtime adjustment control of the energy output

Valleylab™ mode provides equal or superior hemostasis versus standard cut or blend

Surgeons can potentially shorten their O.R. procedure time by having control of power and mode adjustments from the sterile field

LigaSure™ technology:

Permanently fuses vessels up to and including 7mm, lymphatics, tissue bundles, and pulmonary vasculature

Uses the body’s own collagen and elastin to create a permanent fusion zone

Key Features

All current and new LigaSure™ instruments can be used with the ForceTriad™ energy platform

Compared to the LigaSure™ vessel sealing system, the benefits of TissueFect™ sensing technology are:

Faster fusion cycles (average fusion cycle time of 2-4 seconds in most surgical situations)

More flexible fusion zones

Less dessication of tissue

Consistent controlled tissue effects
