EES said that the Harmonic Ace 45cm is 25% longer (9cm) than the standard length Harmonic Ace device and the additional length of the Harmonic Ace 45cm enables surgeons to reach anatomy during procedures on obese patients while reducing the need to relocate trocars.

The Harmonic Ace 45cm also reduces the need to push down on patients’ abdomens, enabling surgeons to rotate the jaws of the device without impacting the trocar.

The Harmonic Ace 45cm is primarily intended for use in bariatric, general, colorectal and gynecologic laparoscopic surgeries for obese patients, including gastric bypass, sleeve gastrectomy, colectomy and hysterectomy.

EES said that Harmonic allows precise application of ultrasonic energy in advanced laparoscopic and open procedures, and is designed to minimise tissue damage to the patient and with the device surgeons will experience the same precision, efficiency and versatility they expect from the Harmonic Ace portfolio.

EES Energy portfolio also includes the Enseal advanced bipolar devices that give surgeons control in tissue, sealing larger vessels while minimising tissue trauma.

Using temperature control technology, Enseal devices offer minimal thermal spread for simultaneously sealing and transecting large vessels up to and including 7mm and tissue bundles.
