The ProTack™ 5mm Auto Suture™ Hernia Fixation Device is a sterile, single-use surgical instrument engineered for the precise fixation of prosthetic mesh to soft tissue during laparoscopic hernia repair procedures. This device deploys helical fasteners composed of implant-grade titanium, providing a reliable and secure method for mesh stabilization. Built upon a foundation of over two decades of clinical application and with more than 60 million tacks deployed globally, the ProTack™ device represents the established benchmark for performance and trust in hernia fixation.
Features:
- Indication for Use: Designed specifically for the fixation of prosthetic mesh to soft tissue in laparoscopic hernia repair.
- Helical Fastener Design: The unique coil-shaped titanium tack design facilitates secure, atraumatic tissue penetration and minimizes the risk of tissue strangulation compared to traditional sutures or staples.
- Implant-Grade Material: Constructed from biocompatible titanium, ensuring long-term tissue compatibility and minimal interference with post-operative imaging.
- 5mm Diameter Shaft: Enables access through a standard 5mm trocar, facilitating a minimally invasive surgical approach.
- 30-Fastener Configuration: Each device is pre-loaded with thirty (30) fasteners, providing ample fixation points for a typical procedure from a single unit.
- Precise Shaft Length: Features an optimal shaft length of approximately 35.5 cm, providing the necessary reach and maneuverability within the abdominal cavity.
- Sterile and Single-Use: Supplied sterile and intended for single use to ensure patient safety, prevent cross-contamination, and guarantee consistent device performance.
- Clinically Validated Heritage: Supported by 20 years of clinical history, establishing it as the gold-standard solution for secure mesh fixation in hernia repair.
