Intuitive Surgical has received FDA clearance for its SP SureForm 45, the first fully wristed stapler designed for single-port robotic surgery.
Advancing da Vinci SP Capabilities
- SP SureForm 45 is compatible with the da Vinci SP system, used in thoracic, colorectal, and urologic procedures.
- Incorporates SmartFire technology, which adjusts in real time to maintain staple integrity and minimize tissue damage.
- Enables surgeon-controlled stapling from the console, improving autonomy and reducing operating time.
The stapler enters through a single access point alongside wristed instruments and a 3D HD camera, maintaining the system’s minimally invasive benefits.
“This kind of control can help save valuable operating time,” said Dr. Myriam Curet, Intuitive’s CMO.
