LivsMed Expands 5mm Wristed Articulating Laparoscopic Instrument Line With New Hook and Spatula

San Diego, CA – LivsMed, a leader in minimally invasive surgical devices, has expanded its exclusive ArtiSential™ 5mm wristed articulating laparoscopic instrument line with the addition of a 5mm Hook and 5mm Spatula. These widely used instruments meet some of the most common needs of laparoscopic surgeons such as reliable monopolar coagulation and dissection. As with all ArtiSential instruments the new hook and spatula provide a full range of motion and true 90 articulation allowing surgeons to approach the anatomical target from any angle and accomplish even complex maneuvers more easily.

In 2019, LivsMed introduced the ArtiSential™ line of single-use laparoscopic instruments with double-jointed end effectors controlled by an ergonomic grip. The end effectors move in perfect synchronization with the surgeon’s natural wrist and hand movements, offering the precision of robotic surgical platforms without the high cost. Additionally, ArtiSential provides tactile feedback, allowing surgeons to apply the right pressure to delicate tissue—something robotic systems cannot achieve.

Earlier this year, LivsMed expanded its product line by introducing the ArtiSential 5, making it the only company to offer 5mm wristed articulating instruments. The ArtiSential 5 instruments are lighter and exceptionally well-balanced, enhancing ease of handling for surgeons. These instruments also provide greater flexibility for the surgical team, as they can be used in any port during laparoscopic or robotic procedures. When used in the assist port during robotic surgery, the ArtiSential 5 instruments can potentially reduce procedure costs.

For patients, the use of a smaller trocar to accommodate the 5mm instrument means a smaller incision, which can result in reduced pain, faster healing, and minimal scarring.
