Covidien Protack Fixation Device - Sangam Surgicals

The Covidien Protack Fixation Device is a surgical device that is used to firmly fix tissues during laparoscopy surgeries. It is also common in fixing tissues during surgeries like hernia repair, bowel resections and other laparoscopic surgeries. The device uses tiny tacks composed of biocompatible materials such as polypropylene in order to fix tissues to the abdomen wall or other organs. The Protack Fixation is a device that is operated by a handheld device which enables the surgeon to accurately place these tacks so that there is a good and solid fixation of the tacks without causing any excessive damage to the tissues. This offers a sure way of holding tissue in position during minimal invasive surgery. The tacks enhance tissue adhesion and healing in the long run. The main advantage of the Covidien Protack Fixation Device is that it can fix tissues in a fast and efficient manner.

The Protack device is a simpler and safer alternative to the traditional sutures, which are time consuming and more likely to result into complications. Its ergonomics also make it less tiring to the surgeon in long operations, thus making it effective and comfortable to perform surgeries. This device assists in enhancing efficiency in surgery by cutting down on the amount of time required in fixing the parts, which, as a result, may result in shortening the recovery time of patients. Also, Protack tacks also minimize the risk of complications like infections and tissue dehiscence, providing a safer choice of affixing tissues during laparoscopic surgery.
